Answer: The side length is 3 yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area of a square, you have to square one of it's side lengths since they all share the same length. Since we know the area, and we need to find the side length so we just need to find the square root of the area.
= 3
The side length is 3 yards.
Answer is a= 51/7 or 7 2/7
Step by step
-2/3 (a + 3) = 5/3a - 19
Distribute to resolve parentheses
-2/3a -2 = 5/3a - 19
Now to move variables to one side
Add 2/3a to both sides
-2/3a + 2/3a -2 = 5/3a + 2/3a -19
Combine like terms
-2 = 7/3a -19
Add 19 to both sides to isolate variable
-2 +19 = 7/3a -19 + 19
17 = 7/3a
Divide both sides by 7/3 to solve for a
(Remember when you divide a fraction, flip it and multiply.)
17 * 3/7 = a
51/7 = a
