The way you wrote it could have 2 meanings:

Sum of twice a and 4 could be:
2a+4 or 2(a+4) which will give different results.

In the first case:
2a+4
a= 4/2
a= 2
So the sum would be 2*2+4 = 4+4 = 8

In the second case:
2(a+4) = 2a + 2*4 = 2a + 8
a= 8/2
a=4

2(4+4) = 2*8 = 16

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

I will show each step algebraically. If you need further explanation, feel free to ask questions :)

$\frac{x}{2} +7=3\\$ Rewrite

$\frac{x}{2} =-4$ Subtract 7

$x =-8$ Multiply by reciprocal (2/1)

I hope this helps!

On the 4th question I can’t tell if those are dots or arrows on the line above “AN” when it says “B lies on AN”, if those are 2 dots on the little line don’t check it, if they are 2 little arrows on the line then check the box, but other than that the rest of the checked are right!!
