     -2(a - 8) + 6a = 36
-2(a) + 2(8) + 6a = 36
     -2a + 16 + 6a = 36
     -2a + 6a + 16 = 36
              4a + 16 = 36
                    - 16  - 16
                       4a = 20
                        4      4
                          a = 5

Distribute -2

-2a + 16 + 6a = 36

Add like terms.

4a + 16 = 36

Factor out 4

4(a+4) = 36

Divide both sides by 4

a + 4 = 9

Subtract 4 on both sides

a = 5

What is an equation that goes through the point (-7, 10) and is perpendicular to the line -2x-4y=9
algol13

Step-by-step explanation:

m1.m2= -1

(4y = -2x -9)= (y = -1x/2 -9/4)

-1/2.m2= -1

m2 = 2

formula = y - y1 = m2 ( x - x1)

y - 10 = 2 ( x - (-7))

y - 10 = 2x + 14

y = 2x + 24

I need help please. Must be correct. 10 points. Thanks

We have the supplementary angles.

The sum of the measures of the two Supplementary Angles is 180°.

Therefore we have the equation:

13x - 2 + 39 = 180

13x + 37 = 180     <em>subtract 37 from both sides</em>

13x = 143      <em>divide both sides by 13</em>

<em>x = 11</em>

2) At the store Julie bought a shirt for $23.97, which was 25% off the original price. Which of these should she use to find x,
Scrat [10]

Answer:

0.75x = 23.97

Step-by-step explanation:

The total is 23.97. 0.25% is off so you have to subtracting 25% from 100% and you will get 75% if you convert it to decimal you will get 0.75.
