Hello there!

First, let's understand what we are dealing with here.

8a + 7 = 31

Our goal is to isolate 8a and then solve for a.

Since 8a is being added by 7, we need to cancel it out. The only way to do that is to perform the opposite order of operations to +7.
The opposite order of operations of +7 is -7, so subtract 7 from both sides of the equation.

7 - 7 = 0
31 - 7 = 24

We now have:
8a = 24

Now we need to solve for a. However, it is being multiplied by 8, so we need to perform the opposite order of operations once again to solve for a.

Divide both sides by 8 to solve for a.

8a / 8 = a
24 / 8 = 3

A = 3 is your solution.

I hope this helps!

First, subtract 7 from both sides.
8a=24
Then, divide each side by 8.
a=3

Answer:

t=0.64

Step-by-step explanation:

h = -16t^2 +4t +4

We want h =0 since it is hitting the ground

0 = -16t^2 +4t +4

Using the quadratic formula

a = -16  b = 4  c=4

-b ± sqrt( b^2 -4ac)

----------------------------

         2a

-4 ± sqrt( 4^2 -4(-16)4)

----------------------------

         2(-16)

-4 ± sqrt( 16+ 256)

----------------------------

         -32

-4 ± sqrt( 272)

----------------------------

         -32

-4 ± sqrt( 16*17)

----------------------------

         -32

-4 ± sqrt( 16) sqrt(17)

----------------------------

         -32

-4 ± 4 sqrt(17)

----------------------------

         -32

Divide by -4

1 ±  sqrt(17)

----------------------------

         8

To the nearest hundredth

t=-0.39

t=0.64

Since time cannot be negative

t=0.64

A car travels 80 kilometres in 2 and a half hours. What is its speed in kilometres per hour?
Allisa [31]
If a car travels 80 km/total distance is 450 km, how much time is required to reach? A car covers half of the distance between two places at 40km per hour and the other half distance at 60 km per hour!

= – 1 is a solution of the equation
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute -1 into all of the formulas, if both sides are equal, then it is correct, for C:

2(x-2)+6 = 0, sub -1

2(-1-2)+6=0, simplify and work out

2(-3)+6=0

-6+6=0

0=0
