The value of "a" is 4

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given expression is:</u></em>

a - 2  = -1 + 2a - 4-1

The above expression involves variables and constants

A variable is a symbol that represents an unknown number

Here the variable is "a"

Constants are fixed numbers like 1, 2 etc

<em><u>From given expression:</u></em>

a - 2  = -1 + 2a - 4-1

Move the varibale "2a" from right side to left side of equation

When, 2a is moved from R.H.S to L.H.S, it becomes -2a

a -2a - 2 = -1 -4-1

Now move the constant -2 from left side to right side of equation

Similarly, when -2 is moved from L.H.S to R.H.S, it becomes +2

a-2a = -1-4-1+2

Now add the variables on left side of equation

-a = -1-4-1+2

Now add the constants on right side of equation

-a = -6+2\\\\-a = -4

Cancel the negative sign on both sides of equation

a=4

Thus the value of "a" is 4
