x = \frac{-11}{3}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , If the first step in the solution of the equation 2x - 8 = 5x + 3 is "subtract 2x," then in the form of a paragraph, explain in complete sentences the next steps necessary to completely solve the equation for x. Let's solve this :

2x - 8 = 5x + 3

⇒ 2x - 8 = 5x + 3

⇒ (2x - 8)-2x = (5x + 3)-2x { subtract 2x from both side }

⇒ 0 - 8 = 5x-2x + 3

⇒ - 8 = 3x + 3

⇒ - 8 -3= 3x + 3-3 { subtract 3 from both sides }

⇒ - 11 = 3x + 0

⇒ - 11 = 3x

⇒ \frac{-11}{3}  = \frac{3}{3} x { divide 3 from both sides }

⇒ x = \frac{-11}{3}

<u>Answer:</u>

  • a = 3.5

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

<u>Let's find 'a' using Pythagoras theorem.</u>

  • => 4² = 2² + a²
  • => 16 = 4 + a²
  • => 12 = a²
  • => a = √12
  • => a = √2 x 2 x 3
  • => a = 2√3
  • => a = 2 x √3
  • => a = 2 x 1.732
  • => a = 3.464 = 3.5 (Estimated)
