Answer:
a=1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
first we need to isolate a squared. so we add 1/4 to both sides
then you take the square root of a square to get 1/2
to check, 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4
1/4-1/4 = 0
Well we would need to see some type of graph in order to help you find the slope.
His total would be 58.50 then you multiply by .25 percent then you take 14.63 and subtract that from the total and you get 43.87
The answer is 2/1, I think. :)
