Answer:

a=3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you replace the variables x and y in the equation with their respectful values, making the equation 5a-2(7)=1.

Then, you simplify the -2(7), which equals 14, making the equation 5a-14=1.

Then, you add 14 from both sides, making the equation 5a=15.

Finally, you divide both sides by 5, making the answer a=3.
