In this question, you're solving for a.
Solve for a:
-8(1 - a) =-7 -(1 - 3a)
<em>use the distributive property</em>
-8 + 8a = -7 -(1 - 3a)
-8 + 8a = -7 - 1 + 3a
<em>combine like terms</em>
-8 + 8a = -8 + 3a
<em>subtract 3a from both sides</em>
-8 + 5a = -8
<em>add 8 to both sides</em>
5a = 0
<em>divide both sides by 5</em>
a = 0

Answer:
The correct answer for this equational ratio is x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to calculate for x, we must create the necessary ratios

Cross multiply to get
900 - 100x = 80x
900 = 180x
x = 5
Answer:
x= -1.5, y= -1
Step-by-step explanation:
6x= -5+4y
x= (-5+4y) / 6
4((-5+4y) / 6) + 5y = -11
4(-5+4y) + 5*6y = -11*6
-20+16y+30y= -66
16y + 30y = -66+20 = -46
y(16 + 30) = -46
y= -46 / (16 + 30)
y= -46 / 46
y= -1
x= (-5+4(-1)) / 6
x= (-5-4) / 6
x= -9 /6
x= -1.5
