Add 1/4a to both sides
-4= 8/4a-3
Simplify
-4=2a-3
Add 3 to both sides
-1=2a
Divide both sides by 2
-1/2=a
Final answer: a=-1/2
The answer and process are in the picture.
22 gallons is 83.279 liters
A^2 +a-6. You use the method of foiling where you multiply the first two terms, the the outside terms, the inside terms, then the last terms. You would do a•a, then a•-2 the a•3 then 3•-2. You would get a^2 -2a +3a -6. Then combine like terms to get your answer.
