Subtract 5 from both sides
a/-8 = 4/7 - 5
simplify 4/7 - 5 to 31/-7
a/-8 = 31/-7
multiply both sides by 8
-a = 31/-7 x 8
simplify 31/7 x 8 to 248/7
-a = 248/7
multiply both sides by -1.
The answer is a = 248/7

Answer:
59°
Step-by-step explanation:
Opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary.
∠N +∠L = 180°
(a +16) +(a -18) = 180
2a = 182 . . . . . . . . . . add 2
a = 91 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
Then the measure of angle M is ...
∠M = (a+30)° = (91 +30)° = 121°
and angle K is its supplement.
∠K = 180° -121°
∠K = 59°
Just subtract 6 from 84 until there are not any numbers left.
