The answer is a = $\frac{4}{-3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>1. Convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction</em>

To find the numerator, multiply the denominator by the whole number and add the numerator to it.

The denominator remains the same.

So, 2 $\frac{2}{3}$ will be $\frac{8}{3}$

<em>2. Now the equation is,</em>

$\frac{3}{2}$ a - $\frac{4}{3}$ a = $\frac{10}{3}$ + $\frac{8}{3}$ a

<em>3. Take LCM on both sides. </em>

For the left side, multiply the first fraction by $\frac{3}{3}$ and multiply the second fraction by $\frac{2}{2}$

$\frac{3*3}{2*3}$ a - $\frac{4*3}{3*3}$ a = $\frac{10+8a}{3}$

<em>4. Solve by making a the subject</em>

$\frac{9a-8a}{6}$ = $\frac{10+8a}{3}$

$\frac{a}{6}$ = $\frac{10+8a}{3}$

$\frac{3a}{6}$ =10+8a

$\frac{a}{2}$ = 10 + 8a

a = 2(10 + 8a)

a = 20 + 16a

a-16a = 20

-15a = 20

a = $\frac{20}{-15}$

a = $\frac{4}{-3}$

Therefore, the answer is a = $\frac{4}{-3}$

Answer:

x=20; vertical angles theorem

Step-by-step explanation:

hi! we can use the vertical angles theorem for this. vertical angles are congruent to each other, meaning they are the same amount of degrees. so, we can set 2x+10 and 50 equal to each other.

2x+10=50

2x=40

x=20

x=20 because of the vertical angles theorem.
