The solution is a=4

-2(1+5a)=-6(a+3)

-2-10a=-6a-18

+18 +18

16-10a=-6a

+10a +10a

16=4a

divide by 4

4=a

Is this a zero? or a negative? or a positive or an undefined?

beks73 [17]

Do you mean the slope? if so, the slope is undefined. however, the equation for the line would be written as y=3 since all the y values on that line are equal to three. hope this helped!

Juanita has saved 30% of the money that she needs to buy a new bicycle.

Mnenie [13.5K]

well, the bicycle costs "x" which is the 100% of its price, we know she has 30% thus far, and we also know that that is 66 bucks.

$\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} x&100\\ 66&30 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{x}{66}=\cfrac{100}{30}\implies \cfrac{x}{66}=\cfrac{10}{3} \\\\\\ 3x=660\implies x\cfrac{660}{3}\implies x=220$
