7(3a + 12) = 168 ← ( divide both sides by 7 )

3a + 12 = 24 ← ( subtract 12 from both sides )

3a = 12 ← ( divide both sides by 3 )

a = 4

OR

distribute the parenthesis by 7

21a + 84 = 168 ← ( subtract 84 from both sides )

21a = 84 ← ( divide both sides by 21 )

a = 4

Are the point (-1, 1) and (3, 1/5) solutions to the equation 3x-5y=8
Sati [7]
The (3, 1/5) would be a solution while the (-1,1) wouldn’t because when you write this equation in the slope intercept form which is y = 3/5x - 8/5

1/5 = 3/5 (3) - 8/5

would end up with 1/5 = 1/5 which is write

While,

1 = 3/5 (-1) - 8/5

Would end up with
1 = 11/5 which is wrong

The parallelogram has a base of 8 cm and corresponding height of 4 cm. The parallelogram is changed proportionally and is dilate
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The area of the new reduced parallelogram after dilation is 8 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, the area of a parallelogram = b * h

before dilation, area of the parallelogram = 8 * 4 = 32 cm^2

After dilation by a factor of 1/2, the base of the parallelogram becomes 1/2 * 8 = 4cm while the height becomes 1/2 * 4 = 2cm

Thus, the area of the dilated parallelogram is 4 * 2 = 8 cm^2
