Answer:

a = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 10 from both sides:

7a + 10 - 10 = 2a - 10

Simplify:

7a = 2a - 10

Subtract 2a from both sides:

7a - 2a = 2a - 10 - 2a

Simplify:

5a = -10

Divide both sides by 5 and simplify:

a = -2

Answer:

A = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 10 from both sides:

7a + 10 = 2a -10

Simplify the expression, 7a = 2a - 10

Subtract 2a from both sides next

7a - 2a = 2a - 10 - 2a

Subtract 7a - 2a

5a = -10

5a / 5 = -10/5

a = -2

If 8 times a number is added to twice the​ number, the result is 60. the solution is
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

(8 * x) + 2x = 60

8x + 2x = 60

10x = 60

/10   /10

x = 6

8 is a constant that is being multiplied by an unknown number which we will name x. It is then being added to two times the unknown number(x), so we multiply x by 2, which is 2x. The final product will be 60, so in the equation it'll then equal 60.

We consider "a number" to be a variable that withholds an unknown value, which is x (or any other variable you prefer).
