Answer:

a =  -  \frac{1}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

5a - 2 = 23a

Collect like terms and simplify

- 2 = 23a - 5a \\  - 2 = 18a

Divide both sides of the equation by 18 and simplify

\frac{ - 2}{18}  =  \frac{18a}{18}  \\  -  \frac{1}{9}  = a

it's 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so if 2 peppers is 25 meters long, you just divide 25 by 2 to get how many peppers the dragon breathes as  1 pepper. So then you get 12.5, And if you do that with the green peppers, you get 1.5. So, the dragon ate 3 green peppers, so it's 12.5 x 3 , aka. 12.5+12.5+12.5. That's  37.5, and if you do 1.5x5 for the green peppers, it's 7.5, And now you add 37.5+7.5, and you get 45.
