To find a, you need to isolate/get the variable "a" by itself in the equation:
Multiply the inverse of 1/2, which is 2, to get rid of the fraction

a - 7 = 66 Add 7 on both sides to get "a" by itself
a - 7 + 7 = 66 + 7
a = 73
D<x =8 18+6 is 24 and 24/3 is 8
The answer is 137° because supplementary means the 2 angles must equal 180°
Answer:
1) 5.44, 2) 3.9
Step-by-step explanation:
1) a/b + 2b - a^2 when a = 1.4 and b = 0.2
plug in the values:
1.4/0.2 + 2(0.2) - (1.4)^2 = 7 + 0.4 - 1.96 = 5.44
2) a[b-2c]^3 - d/e when a = 2, b = -0.75, c = -1, d = 0, e = -12 5/7 (rewritten to -89/7 = 12.71)
again, plug in the values:
2[-0.75-2(-1)]^3 - 0/12.71 = 2[1.25]^3 - 0 = 2[1.95] = 3.9
Letter C is correct.
When the function is even, (all powers are even) both ends will go in the same direction.
In this case since the leading coefficient is negative, both ends will go down.
