Solve each equation for the indicated variable. u = -3a - 3 , for a
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable, a. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
PEMDAS is the order of operation and stands for:
Parenthesis
Exponents (& Roots)
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction
First, add 3 to both sides of the equation:
u = -3a - 3
u (+3) = -3a - 3 (+3)
u + 3 = -3a
Next, divide -3 from both sides of the equation:
(u + 3)/-3 = (-3a)/-3
a = (u + 3)/-3
is your answer.

(-3j²k³)²(2j²k)³ = <em>When a power is raised to a power the exponents have to be multiplied.</em>
= (-3²j⁽²*²⁾k⁽³*²⁾)(2³j⁽²*³⁾k³) = <em>We can take out the constants</em>
= (9)(8)(j⁴k⁶)(j⁶k³) = <em>We can group the same variables</em>
= 72(j⁴j⁶)(k⁶k³) = <em>When multiplying two powers that have the same base, you have to add the exponents.</em>
= 72 j⁽⁴⁺⁶⁾k⁽⁶⁺³⁾ = 72j¹⁰k⁹
Answer = 72j¹⁰k⁹
