-3a + 5 =-1 please help me

Mathematics
2 answers:
Law Incorporation [45]3 years ago

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find <em>a</em> we need to first isolate it. There is a 5 on the left side along with the -3a that has to be moved.

To do this, we can subtract 5 from both sides of the equation using the subtraction property of equality.

-3a + 5 - 5 = - 1 - 5

-3a = -6

Now that the a term is isolated, the next step is to remove the coefficient.

Let's use the division property of equality and divide both sides of the equation by -3.

-3a/-3 = -6/-3

a = 2

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

-3a + 5 = -1

5+1 =3a

6 =3a

divide both sides by 3

6/3 = 3a/3

2=a

Therefore a=2

Which point is on the graph of a direct variation equation in which k=0.4?
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

B. (10,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the independent variable and y represents the dependent variable in the graph,

∵Graph represents the direct variation,

⇒ y ∝ x

⇒ y = kx

Where, k is the proportionality constant.

Here, k = 0.4,

⇒ Equation that shows in the graph would be,

y = 0.4x

At (4, 10),

10 = 0.4(4) ( False ),

⇒ (4, 10) is not in the graph.

At (10, 4),

4 = 0.4(10) ( True )

⇒ (10, 4) is on the graph.

At (0.04, 10),

10 = 0.4(0.04) ( false )

⇒ (0.04, 10) is not on the graph.

At (10, 0.04),

0.04 = 0.4(10) ( false )

⇒ (10, 0.04) is not on the graph.
