To find a, you need to isolate/get the variable "a" by itself in the equation:
Multiply the inverse of 1/2, which is 2, to get rid of the fraction

a - 7 = 66 Add 7 on both sides to get "a" by itself
a - 7 + 7 = 66 + 7
a = 73
Answer:
First one is 41
Second one is 87
Step-by-step explanation:
Make the shaded part as a trapezoid which is (3+6)*10/2 you just have to get rid of 2*2. So you get 41 as the answer.
The unshaded part will be 16*8 then subtracts the shaded part which is 41. Then you get the answer 87.
Answer:
-21
Step-by-step explanation:
3t-7=5t
-7=5t-3t
-7=2t
t= -7/2
6t=?
6(-7/2)= -21
Let m and j be the current ages of Matthew and Jenny, respectively.
Now, Matthew is 3 times as old as Jenny, so the variables are in the following relation:

In 7 years, both of them will be 7 years older, i.e. their ages will be m+7 and j+7, and Matthew will be twice as old:

Now, remembering that m=3j, we can rewrite the second equation as

So, Jenny is 7 and Matthew is 21 (he's 3 times older).
In fact, in 7 years, they will be 14 and 28, and Matthew will be twice as old.
