First we have to eliminate the parenthesis, by multiplying 2 with both numbers
3a+8a-2=9
11a-2=9  we will add 2 on both sides
11a=11 divide by 11
a=1

3a + 2(4a - 1) = 9.

Distributive property.

3a + 8a - 2 = 9

Combine like terms.

11a - 2 = 9

subtract +2 on both sides.

11a - 2 = 9
+2 +2

Answer:

6 Laps

Step-by-step explanation:

3 laps + 6 miles = 5 laps + 2 miles.

Subtract miles over.  3 laps + 4 miles = 5 laps.

Subtract laps over.  4 miles = 2 laps.

Simplify.  2 miles = 1 lap.

Plug it in to one of the equations. 5 laps + 2 miles = Your answer.

2 miles = 1 lap. 5 laps + 1 lap = 6 laps.

Your answer is 6 LAPS.
