Here is how I would show the work for this problem
5- (a-4) = 3 (a+2)
5-a+4 = 3*a+3*2
5-a+4 = 3a+6
-a+9 = 3a+6
-a+9+a = 3a+6+a
9 = 4a+6
9-6 = 4a+6-6
3 = 4a
4a = 3
4a/4 = 3/4
a = 3/4
So the solution is the fraction a = 3/4 (in decimal form 0.75)
Let me know if you have any questions or issues with any of the steps shown above. It's a lot to take in so feel free to ask about anything really.

Answer:
(-3,-8)
Step-by-step explanation:
I would explain but that would take too much time.
Answer:
y = -2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
A parallel line has the same slope but different y-intercept.
Transfer the slope (-2) and the ordered pair (2, -3) into point slope form.
Then make it from point slope form to slope intercept.
Hope this helps you. :)
