Answer:
a = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
15 - a = 20
Move the constant of 15 to the other side by subtracting it.
-a = 5
Divide by -1 to make a positive.
a = -5

15 - (-5) = 20
15 + 5 = 20
20 = 20

I don't see graphs here but use this general idea and you'll be fine. Of course, this applies to graphs of lines of the form y = mx + b.
It would be 43.96 is the circumference.
