If you’re solving for a... subtract the 8 to the other side so...
-4(a+3)- 3(2a-8) = 22.
Distribute the -4 and -3 into the parentheses (two negatives multiplied together is a positive)...
-4a-12-6a+24 = 22.
Add the constants and a’s together.
-10a + 12 = 22
Subtract 12 to the other side.
-10a = 10
Divide both sides by -10.
a = -1
Check and make sure that this answer works with the problem.
-4(-1+3)-3(-2-8)=22
-4(-2)-3(-10)=22.
-8+30=22.
22=22, the answer checks out

If 10a+10b=35, what is the average (arithmetic mean) of a and b?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

If a  and b are two numbers, then their arithmetic mean is

\dfrac{a+b}{2}

Given:

10a+10b=35

Divide this equation by 10:

a+b=3.5

Now, divide it by 2:

\dfrac{a+b}{2}=\dfrac{3.5}{2}\\ \\\dfrac{a+b}{2}=1.75
