I think it would be 8-3, not 7. 8x - 2x + 5x = (8-5)x + 5x
All you have to do is move the denominator on the other side, by multiplying.
a-10
------- = -9
20
multiply 20 x -9
= -180
then it becomes a-10=-180
+10 +10
a=-170
Answer:
3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope=

slope =

=

2(3x+4y) = 2(24)
6x+8y = 48
Add both the equations
6x + 8y = 48
+ x - 8y = -20
—————————
7x = 28
x = 28/7
x = 4
Plug in this value in the second equation
(4) - 8y = -20
-8y = -24
y = -24/-8
y = 3
Therefore:
x = 4
y = 3
