First, subtract 7 from both sides.
8a=24
Then, divide each side by 8.
a=3
Rounding to a whole number means rounding a decimal digit number to the nearest whole number and eliminating the decimal digit.
To do so we should have a look at the decimal digit
Here we have 13.2
here the 2 is the digit in the decimal
We already know that when the number to be rounded is less than 5 then it is rounded to the whole number preceding it and if it is greater than 5 it is rounded to the whole number next to it.
Here we can see that 2 is less than 5 , and it is closer to 13 than to 14. So we can round this number to 13 feet
( Extra point for better understanding: If we have say 13.8 to be rounded to nearest whole number, we can see that 8 is greater than 5 and so it is closer to 14 than to 13 then it will be rounded to 14)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, we are expected to write/express the given statement in algebra notation. that is using mathematical expression letters and symbols to express word problem
Hence: nine times the difference of 5 and y
1. the difference of 5 and y= (5-y)
2. 9*(5-y)
Hence the expression is given as 
Simply divide 258 by 300, which gets you 0.86
hope this helps :)
the expression is 27a^3 or (3a)^3
