Answer:a=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

4a + -5 + 2a + 9 = 28

Reorder the terms:

-5 + 9 + 4a + 2a = 28

Combine like terms: -5 + 9 = 4

4 + 4a + 2a = 28

Combine like terms: 4a + 2a = 6a

4 + 6a = 28

Solving

4 + 6a = 28

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-4' to each side of the equation.

4 + -4 + 6a = 28 + -4

Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0

0 + 6a = 28 + -4

6a = 28 + -4

Combine like terms: 28 + -4 = 24

6a = 24

Divide each side by '6'.

a = 4

Simplifying

a = 4

Answer:

a = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Combine like terms

<u>4a</u><em> </em><em>- 5</em> +<u> 2a</u> <em>+ 9</em> = 28

6a + 4 = 28

2. Subtract 4 from both sides of the equal sign

6a  = 24

3. Divide both sides of the equal sign by six

a = 4

fomenos

Answer:

(a), (a,c), (a,d), (a,e), (a,c,d), (a,c,e), (a,d,e), (a,c,d,e)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the set (a,b,c,d,e).

Total number of subsets of the above set are 2^5 = 32

Subsets:

φ

(a,b,c,d,e)

(a), (b), (c), (d), (e)

(a,b), (a,c), (a,d), (a,e), (b,c), (b,d), (b,e), (c,d), (c,e), (d,e)

(a,b,c), (a,b,d), (a,b,e), (a,c,d), (a,c,e), (a,d,e), ( b,c,d), (b,c,e), (b,d,e), (c,d,e)

(a,b,c,d), (a,b,c,e), (a,b,d,e), (a,c,d,e), (b,c,d,e)

Subset having a but not b :

(a), (a,c), (a,d), (a,e), (a,c,d), (a,c,e), (a,d,e), (a,c,d,e)

The first side of a triangle is 7cm less than twice the second side. The third side is 4cm longer than the first side. The perim
Vinil7 [7]

Given:

First side(A): 2B - 7

Second side(B): B

Third side(C): B + 4

Plug in values:

A + B + C = 80

2B - 7 + B + B + 4 = 80

If you look at the coefficients only, you can rewrite the equation like this:

2B + B + B - 7 + 4 = 80

This means that 4B - 7 + 4 = 80

=4B - 3 = 80

= 4B = 80 + 3

B = 83/4, so you can either write B as 83/4 or as 20.75.

Checking your work:

A: 2(20.75) - 7 = 34.5

B: 20.75

C: 4 + 20.75 = 24.75

34.5 + 20.75 + 24.75 = 80cm.

Hope this helped.
