The answer is a equals 6.
Monica [59]3 years ago
3 0

5(a – 7) + 11 = 2a – 3(a + 4)

5a - 35 + 11 = 2a - 3a - 12

5a - 24 = -a - 12

add a to both sides

5a - 24 + a = -a -12 + a

simplify

6a - 24 = -12

add 24 to both sides

6a - 24 + 24 = -12 + 24

simplify

6a = 12

divide both sides by 6

6a/6 = 12/6

simplify

a = 2

Find the area of shaded region
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: 107 units.

Step-by-step explanation: To find the area of the first box, you multiply the side lengths, which in this case are 5 by 7 to get 35. Then you find the area of the second box by multiplying 8 * 10 which is 80 so the total area of everything is 115 units. Then you subtract the non - shaded region which is 2 * 4 units. So after subtracting 115 - 8, you get your final answer of 107 units.
