Remember that there is 100 centimeters in a meter, and 1000 meters in a kilometer. If you multiply both values together (so you have a conversion of centimeters to kilometers) you get 100,000. Therefore, 100,000 centimeters makes a kilometer. Divide 320,000 by 100,000 and you get 3.2. Therefore, a centimeter would represent 3.2 kilometers.

If the point (a,3) lies on the graph of the equation 5x + y = 8 then a =?

Contact [7]

Answer:

a = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the point (a, 3) is on the line: 5x + y = 8.

Any point on the line satisfies the equation.

So, (a, 3) should satisfy the equation 5x + y = 8

Substituting x = a and y = 3, we get:

5(a) + 3 = 8

$\implies 5a = 5$

⇒ a = 1

Therefore, (1, 3) is the point on the line.
