The answer is a=1

Here's the math:

9a-3(2a-4)=15

9a-6a+12=15-------------------------------Distribute the -3 across the parenthesis

3a+12=15-----------------------------------Combine like terms

3a=3----------------------------------------Subtract 12 from both sides

a=1-------------------------------------------Divide 3 from both sides

Hope this helped!! :))

<span>9a + -3(2a + -4) = 15 Reorder the terms: 9a + -3(-4 + 2a) = 15 9a + (-4 * -3 + 2a * -3) = 15 9a + (12 + -6a) = 15 Reorder the terms: 12 + 9a + -6a = 15 Combine like terms: 9a + -6a = 3a 12 + 3a = 15 Solving 12 + 3a = 15 Solving for variable 'a'. Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-12' to each side of the equation. 12 + -12 + 3a = 15 + -12 Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0 0 + 3a = 15 + -12 3a = 15 + -12 Combine like terms: 15 + -12 = 3 3a = 3 Divide each side by '3'. a = 1 Simplifying a = 1</span>

What is the most accurate representation of the area of a plot measuring 11.7 cm by 15.4 cm?
sergiy2304 [10]
In the given question the length and width of the plot are already given. although there is no direct specification regarding the one that is length or the one that is the width, so it can be taken as your own choice. This will not affect the ultimate answer. 
So
Area of the rectangular plot = Length * Width
                                             = 11.7 * 15.4 square cm
                                             = 180.18 square cm
So the area of the rectangular plot as can be seen from the above deduction is 180.18 square centimeter.
