Answer:

a = 6 or a = -58/8

Step-by-step explanation:

I think you meant to ask us to solve for a.

There are two cases to solve for:

5 + 8a = 53 or -(5 + 8a) = 53

8a = 48 or 5 + 8a = -53

a = 6 or 8a = -58

a = 6 or a = -58/8

Len [333]
First, distribute the 2 on the right side of the equation so you get 4a-26. Then add 26 to both sides so you have 7a+21 =4a. Subtract 7a and get 21 = -3a. Divide by -3 and your final answer is -7.
