You have to isolate the a. Add fifteen to both sides of the equation, so it’s
2a=15-1
Then subtract 15 and 1, so then the quantity is 14
2a=14
Then divide 2 by both sides, and the answer is
a=7

Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write a proportion to find how much mix is required to make 52 cupcakes.
quarts/cupcakes = 3.5/32 = x/52
Multiplying by 52, we find ...
x = 52(3.5/32) = 5.6875 . . . quarts needed for 52 cupcakes
This is more mix than Austin made. He does not have enough left for 20 more cupcakes.
Answer:
approximately 6.708 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
We use the Pythagorean theorem to solve the problem, using 3 feet and 6 feet as the legs of a right angle triangle. The diagonal of the screen is therefore the "hypotenuse" of this right angle triangle, and can be determined via the formula:

which is approximately 6.708 feet
5 liters (L) of 30% bleach solution contains 0.3×(5 L) = 1.5 L of bleach.
3 L of 50% bleach contains 0.5×(3 L) = 1.5 L of bleach, too.
Combined, you would have 8 L of solution containing 1.5 L + 1.5 L = 3 L of bleach, so the concentration of bleach is
(3 L) / (8 L) = 0.375 = 37.5%
