The answer for this problem is 70
80=-8a
We are trying to solve for a. So we need to get a alone. To do that we have to divide each side by -8.
80/-8= -8a/-8
Once you have solved each side you will get the following.
-10=a
Answer:
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to solve for x, right?
(x-5)^(1/2)+5=2
You have it right so far.
(x - 5)^(1/2) = -3
(x - 5) = (-3)^2
x - 5 = 9
x = 9 + 5 = 14
7/10 > 4/10 because 7/10 is bigger than 4/10
7/10 = 0.7
4/10 = 0.4
