Answer:

\huge{ \fbox{ \sf{a =  - 12}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\underline{ \mathfrak{Let's \: solve}}:

\bigstar{ \sf \:  \: 6a - 2a =  - 48}

\text{Step \: 1 \: } :  \sf{Collect \: like \: terms}

\sf{ Like \: terms \: are \: those \: which \: have \: the \: same \: base.}

\mapsto{ \sf{4a =  - 48}}

\text{Step \: 2 \:} :  \sf{Divide \: both \: sides \: by \: 4}

\mapsto{ \sf{ \:  \frac{4a}{4}  =  \frac{ - 48}{4} }}

\text{Step \: 3 \:  }:  \sf{ Calculate}

\underline{ \sf{Remember!}}  :  \sf{Dividing \: a \: negative \: integer \: by \: a \: positive \: integer \: gives \: a \: \: negative \: integer.}

\mapsto{ \sf{ \frac{ \cancel{4} \: a}{  \cancel{4}  } =  \frac{ \cancel{ - 48} ^{  \:  \:  - 12}  }{ \cancel{4} ^{ \:  \: 1} }  }}

\mapsto{ \sf{a =  - 12}}

The value of a is -12

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

What is 1/8-10(3/4-3/8x)+5/8x
cluponka [151]

Answer:

x = 59/35

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Distribute</u>

1/8 - 10(3/4 - 3/8x) + 5/8x

1/8 - 30/4 + 30/8x + 5/8x

<u>Step 2:  Combine like terms</u>

1/8 - 30*2/4*2 - 30/8x + 5/8x

1/8 - 60/8 + 35/8x

-59/8 + 35/8x

<u>Step 3:  Solve for x</u>

-59/8 + 35/8x + 59/8 = 0 + 59/8

35/8x * 8/35 = 59/8 * 8/35

x = 59/35

Answer:  x = 59/35

2.  1,900,000

= 1.9 * 10^6    ( counting the number of digits after the 1 gives us 6).
