Answer:

\huge\boxed{14a+(-3a)=11a}

Step-by-step explanation:

14a+(-3a)\qquad(+)(-)=(-)(+)=(-)\\\\=14a-3a\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\=(14-3)a=11a

Answer:

11a

Step-by-step explanation:

The addition sign does not add the coefficients together. It will already be subtraction with the negative 3a. So, that means the new equation is 14a-3a, then subtracting 14-3 equates to 11.

A rectangular restaurant kitchen has a perimeter of 36 meters and an area of 80 square meters. what are the dimensions of the ki
konstantin123 [22]
Let L and W be the length and width of the given rectangle, respectively. Perimeter is calculated through the equation,

    P = 2L + 2W

Substituting the perimeter,
   36 = 2L + 2W
Simplifying,
    18 = L + W

The area is calculated by multiplying the length and width as below,
    A = 80 = LW
  
Substituting the expressions,
   80 = (L)(18 - L)
The value of L from the equation is 8. With this, the value of W is equal to 10.

Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle are 8 m by 10 m.

Solve<br> h-w<br> Solve m = for the<br> 8<br> variable h.<br> I
Ilya [14]

Answer:

1) m = h - w/8

Subtract h from both sides.

m - h = -w/8

Subtract m from both sides.

-h = -m - w/8

Divide all terms by -1.

h = m + w/8.

2) m = h - w/8

Get rid of the denominator 8 by multiplying 8/1 to all terms.

8m = 8h - w

Add w on both sides and subtract 8m from both sides.

w = 8h - 8m

3) w = x + y/z

Get rid of the denominator z by multiplying it to all terms.

wz = xz + y

Subtract xz from both sides of the equation.

wz - xz = y OR y = wz - xz

4) w = x + y/z

Subtract x from both sides.

w - x = y/z

Get rid of the denominator by multiplying it to all terms.

wz - xz = y

Now factor the expression wz - xz.

z(w - x) = y

Divide both sides by w - x.

z = y / w - x

This is read as z equals to y divided by w minus x.

5) The area of a triangle is A = 1/2bh

First, get rid of the denominator by multiplying both sides by 2.

2A = bh

To find b, divide both sides by h.

2A/h = b

6) P = kt/v

Multiply both sides by v.

Pv = kt

Divide both sides by t.

Pv/t = k OR k = Pv/t.
