Simplifying

44 = 14 + -2a

Solving

44 = 14 + -2a

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '2a' to each side of the equation.

44 + 2a = 14 + -2a + 2a

Combine like terms: -2a + 2a = 0

44 + 2a = 14 + 0

44 + 2a = 14

Add '-44' to each side of the equation.

44 + -44 + 2a = 14 + -44

Combine like terms: 44 + -44 = 0

0 + 2a = 14 + -44

2a = 14 + -44

Combine like terms: 14 + -44 = -30

2a = -30

Divide each side by '2'.

a = -15

Simplifying

a = -15 p.s i hope i helped you ~ azu

To solve the equation 44 = 14 - 2a, we need to get a by itself, on one side of the equation. We can do this by first getting terms with a on one side and terms without it on the other side.

44 = 14 - 2a

To get a on one side, we need to eliminate 14 from the side with the -2a. We can do this by subtracting 14 from each side.

44 - 14 = 14 - 14 - 2a

-2a = 30

Now we want to get a single a, which can be accomplished by dividing both sides by -2.

-2/-2a 30/-2

a = -15

Solve each equation 3x^2=80

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

$x = \frac{4\sqrt{15}}{3}, x = \frac{-4\sqrt{15}}{3}$

$x = \frac{\pm4\sqrt{15}}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Use the quadratic formula: $x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

First, let's convert our equation to standard form of a Quadratic: ax² + bx + c = 0

3x² = 80

3x² - 80 = 0

Note, thats the value of b will be 0, as there is no "bx"

Now, solve:

$x = \frac{-(0) \pm \sqrt{(0)^2 - 4(3)(-80)}}{2(3)}$ Plug in values
$x = \frac{\pm\sqrt{960}}{6}$ Simplify the radical (Discriminant)
$x = \frac{\pm8\sqrt{15}}{6}$ Pull out perfect squares
$x = \frac{4\sqrt{15}}{3}, x = \frac{-4\sqrt{15}}{3}$ Reduce factors

The solutions are $x = \frac{4\sqrt{15}}{3}, x = \frac{-4\sqrt{15}}{3}$

Answer:

C

Explanation:

On the scatter plot, there is a dot where the lines for 6 and 3 meet. when looking for the ordered pair you would go along first then up (> then ^) so it would be (6,3). Another example, for the third dot on the plot, if you go along first you get 12 then when you go up you get 9 so the ordered pair for that would be (12,9). I really hope you understand what i mean and this helps as i struggled with explaining haha!
