Answer:

The first step will be grouping the like terms together on both sides of '='

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is :

$x+7=2x+5-4x$

The first step will be grouping the like terms together on both sides of '='

$x-2x+4x=5-7$

Now adding both sides.

$3x=-2$

Dividing both sides by 3, we get

$x=\frac{-2}{3}$

Please find x and a

aev [14]

Answer:

x = 36

a = 25

Step-by-step Explanation

By Pythagoras Theorem:

$x = \sqrt{ {39}^{2} - {15}^{2} } \\ \\ x = \sqrt{1,521 - 225} \\ \\ x = \sqrt{1,296} \\ \\ x = 36 \\ \\ a = \sqrt{ {20}^{2} + {15}^{2} } \\ \\ a = \sqrt{400 + 225} \\ \\ a = 25 \sqrt{625} \\ \\ a = 25$
