First combine like terms to get:
-3a + 8 = 17

Solve by subtracting 8 then dividing by -3:
-3a = 9
a = -3

The graph of y = x^2 is translated 1 unit to the right. What is the equation of the new graph?
Burka [1]

Answer: 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number was OUTSIDE the exponents it represents a movement up or down

If the number is inside the parenthesis and exponent ex: (x-1)^2 then it decides a movement on the left or right

However inside the parenthesis it is reversed, so a - is move to the right and a + is moved to the left, this making your answer (x-1)^2

72.3 + (-39.1)
joja [24]

Answer:

72.3 - 39.1 = 4tens - 7ones + 2tenth

Step-by-step explanation:

Give the expression 72.3 + (-39.1)

opening the parenthesis:

= 72.3 + (-39.1)

= 72.3 - 39.1

Breaking the decimal values into place values

72.3 = 7tens + 2units + 3tenth

72.3 = 7(10)+2(1)+3(1/10)

72.3 =70+2+0.3

Similarly for 39.1

39.1 = 3tens + 9units + 1tenth

39.1 = 3(10)+9(1)+1(1/10)

39.1 =30+9+0.1

72.3 - 39.1 = 70+2+0.3 - (30+9+0.1)

72.3 - 39.1 = 70+2+0.3 - 30-9-0.1

72.3 - 39.1  = 70-30+2-9+0.3-0.1

72.3 - 39.1 = 40 - 7 +0.2

72.3 - 39.1 = 4tens - 7ones + 2tenth
