To solve this equation, you first need to get all the a's onto one side, because you want "a =", so you can add 2a
8 + 6a = -2a + 24
+ 2a
8 + 8a = 24
a is still not on its own yet, so we need to subtract 8 and then divide by 8:
8 + 8a = 24
- 8
8a = 16
÷ 8
a = 2
So your answer is a = 2, I hope this helps!

You group the like terms together
6a+2a=24-8
8a=16
a=16÷8
a=2

7(6m - 4) = -364 pls try and show work thanks!

quester [9]

Answer:

7(6m - 4) = -364

multiply 7 for both variables in the parenthesis

42m - 28 = -364

move 28 to other side

42m= -336

divide 42 on both sides

m= -8

What is the inverse of x^2-4x+5

lisabon 2012 [21]

we are given

$f(x)=x^2-4x+5$

Since, we have to find inverse of this function

step-1: we set f(x)=y

$y=x^2-4x+5$

step-2: switch x and y

$x=y^2-4y+5$

step-3: Solve for y

$y^2-4y+(5-x)=0$

now, we can use quadratic formula

$y=\frac{4+\sqrt{4^2-4(5-x)} }{2}$

$f^{-1}(x)=\sqrt{x-1}+2$

or

$f^{-1}(x)=-\sqrt{x-1}+2$ ..............Answer

Jacob buys 3 hot dogs and a $1 soda.he spent $5.50 in all.what is the cost of one hot dog?

Margaret [11]

It would be $1.50 because if the soda's $1 then subtract it and divide that by the quantity.
