I took a19=-58 divide it by 19 both side i get a = -58÷19 (note; you can never have a neg. # on the top bring the neg. down to the bottom and divide) now its 58÷-19= -3.05 or -3 (1÷19) so a = -3(1/19) do the same to the other now. answer is a=-7 (17/21)

4[2y + -3] + -1 = 11
Reorder the terms:
4[-3 + 2y] + -1 = 11
[-3 * 4 + 2y * 4] + -1 = 11
[-12 + 8y] + -1 = 11
Reorder the terms:
-12 + -1 + 8y = 11
Combine like terms: -12 + -1 = -13
-13 + 8y = 11
Solving
-13 + 8y = 11
Solving for variable 'y'.
Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '13' to each side of the equation.
-13 + 13 + 8y = 11 + 13
Combine like terms: -13 + 13 = 0
0 + 8y = 11 + 13
8y = 11 + 13
Combine like terms: 11 + 13 = 24
8y = 24
Divide each side by '8'.
y = 3
Simplifying
y = 3</span>
The answer is going to be 8 because it’s all real numbers greater than or equal to 8
The absolute value of 17 is 17 because absolute values means the distance from zero
We have been given that last year, the business had profit of $8000.
Further, we are given that, the profit for this year will be 5 times as great the profit of last year. So, in order to find profit of current year, we will have to consider 5 times of $8000.
Therefore, we get the profit for current year as:

Therefore, profit for current year would be 40,000 dollars.
