Answer:

a = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for a:

-7 (3 a - 1) = 91

Divide both sides of -7 (3 a - 1) = 91 by -7:

(-7 (3 a - 1))/(-7) = 91/(-7)

(-7)/(-7) = 1:

3 a - 1 = 91/(-7)

The gcd of 91 and -7 is 7, so 91/(-7) = (7×13)/(7 (-1)) = 7/7×13/(-1) = 13/(-1):

3 a - 1 = 13/(-1)

Multiply numerator and denominator of 13/(-1) by -1:

3 a - 1 = -13

Add 1 to both sides:

3 a + (1 - 1) = 1 - 13

1 - 1 = 0:

3 a = 1 - 13

1 - 13 = -12:

3 a = -12

Divide both sides of 3 a = -12 by 3:

(3 a)/3 = (-12)/3

3/3 = 1:

a = (-12)/3

The gcd of -12 and 3 is 3, so (-12)/3 = (3 (-4))/(3×1) = 3/3×-4 = -4:

Answer: a = -4

Answer:

a = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write out equation

-7(3a - 1) = 91

Step 2: Distribute -7

-21a + 7 = 91

Step 3: Subtract 7 on both sides

-21a = 84

Step 4: Divide both sides by -21

a = -4

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Employers will look to see which workers are applying themselves. They want workers who are flexible, have good attitudes, are loyal to their company, practice good judgement, and are unselfish. Workers who go out and do work that is not formally assigned to them and expand the scope of their responsibilities are rewarded with promotions. Workers who maintain extensive professional networks and learn new skills are also prime candidates for promotion.

This was the example answer. Hope this helps!! HAVE AN AMAZING DAY!

Angle m AOC=108° m AOB=3x+4° m BOC=8x-28°<br><br> Find m AOB
Alex787 [66]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

40



Discussion:

A diagram is always appreciated!

Assuming that

mAOC = mAOB    + mBOC       =>

108      = (3x + 4)  +  (8x - 28)    =>  combine common terms

108      = (3x + 8x) + (4 - 28 )     =>

108      = 11x - 24                        =>   add 24 to both sides

132     = 11x                                 =>

x = 132/11 = 12


So mAOB = 3x + 4 = 3(12) + 4 = 36 + 4 = 40



Thank you,

MrB
