Isolate the a. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other.

Subtract 27 from both sides to isolate the a.

a + 27 (-27) = 32 (-27)

a = 32 (-27)

Subtract

a = 5

5 is your answer


hope this helps

How do you simplify this equation?
Troyanec [42]
4^3*4^-5= 4^-2 (add the exponents since the base is the same)
5^-4*5^1= 5^-3 (add the exponents since the base is the same)

Square both terms (double the exponents)
(4^-2)^2= 4^-4
(5^-3)2= 5^-6

Then take out negative exponents (x^-a= 1/x^a)
4^-4 /5^-6 = 5^6/4^4

Final answer: 5^6/4^4

If you want it in number form
5^6= 15625
4^4=256
15625/256= 61.035...

A basket of snacks contains 8 packs of oreos, 2 bags of chips, 6 packs of gummies, and 4 granola bars. Bill randomly choses 2 sn
mestny [16]

Answer:

There is a 3/95 probability that a granola bar is chosen one choice after the other without replacement.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of choosing a granola bar without replacing the first bar is 4/20, or 1/5. 4 represents the number of granola bars, and 20 represents the total snacks. Then there are 19 snacks and 3 granola bars which represents the 3/19 chance of getting a granola bar the second time without replacing it.

To find the probability of both of those events happening, multiply them.

(1/5) * (3/19) = 3/95.

Gwendolyn is asked to solve the equation –4(x – 3) = 20. She shows the work below and states that the solution is x = –8. –4(x –
____ [38]

Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Equation is -4(x-3)=20

To find: flaw in Gwendolyn's work and the correct solution to the equation.

Solution:

In the given question,

the first step is -4(x-3)=20

The second step is -4x+12=20

(This step is obtained on multiplying -4 by x-3)

The third step is -4x=32

This step is wrong as on transposing 12 from left side of the equation in the second step to the right side, the following equation is obtained:

-4x=20-12\\-4x=8\\x=-2

So, the correct solution is x=-2
