1 answer:

5 0

8a - 4 = 25 + 6 (a - 8)

(distribute the 6)

8a - 4 = 25 + 6a - 48

(combine like terms 25 - 48)

8a - 4 = 6a - 23

( subtract 6a from both sides)

2a - 4 = -23

(add 4 to both sides)

2a = -19

(divide both sides by 2)

a = - 9.5

////CHECK/////

8 (-9.5) - 4 = 25 + 6 ( -9.5 -8)

(plug each side into a calculator)

-80 = -80

FINAL ANSWER:

a = -9.5

$\sqrt{x} \leq 5$

Find the real region for $\sqrt{x}$

$\sqrt{x}$ is real for $x \geq 0$

$= x \geq 0$

$\sqrt{x} \leq 5$

Square both sides:

$( \sqrt{x} )^2 \leq 5^2$

$5^2 = 5*5 =25$

Refine:

$x \leq 25$
