Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Brackets always mean "DO THIS FIRST!!!"
2+6 = 8
Then, do 3 x 8. That is 24.
24 divided by 4 is 6.
6 - 2 is 4!
Simplify:
5(a + 5) + -3 = 3(2 + -1a)
Reorder the terms:
5(5 + a) + -3 = 3(2 + -1a)
(5 * 5 + a * 5) + -3 = 3(2 + -1a)
(25 + 5a) + -3 = 3(2 + -1a)
Reorder the terms again:
25 + -3 + 5a = 3(2 + -1a)
Combine like terms:
]25 + -3 = 22
22 + 5a = 3(2 + -1a)
22 + 5a = (2 * 3 + -1a * 3)
22 + 5a = (6 + -3a)
Solve:
22 + 5a = 6 + -3a
To solve for variable 'a':
You have to move all terms containing A to the left, all other terms to the right.
Then add '3a' to each side of the equation:
22 + 5a + 3a = 6 + -3a + 3a
Combine like terms:
5a + 3a = 8a
22 + 8a = 6 + -3a + 3a
Combine like terms again:
-3a + 3a = 0
22 + 8a = 6 + 0
22 + 8a = 6
Add '-22' to each side of the equation.:
22 + -22 + 8a = 6 + -22
Combine like terms:
22 + -22 = 0
0 + 8a = 6 + -22
8a = 6 + -22
Combine like terms once more:
6 + -22 = -16
8a = -16
Divide each side by '8'.
a = -2
Simplify:
a = -2
Answer: a=-2

Answer:
<h2>There are 5040 different possible sequences.</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Three identical notches and four identical bends are required in the sheet metal operation.
In total 7 things are required in the metal operation.
We can think it as we need to put the 3 notches and 4 bends in 7 places.
First, lets put the 3 notches in 3 places.
In order to do so, we need to choose 3 places from the 7 places.
We can choose 3 places in 
ways.
The 3 notches can be arrange in 3! = 6 ways.
The 4 bends can arrange in 4! = 24 ways.
Thus, in total 
different possible sequences.
Here you divide the number from denominator to numerator. Example 3/3=1, 8/2=4 in denominator and 1 in numerator since 2/2=1
