Here is the answer if you can't read my writing than just ask. also if you have any questions about how I got something feel free to ask
-9 < 6 -v < 9 . . . . two inequalities
-15 < -v < 3 . . . . . subtract 6
-3 < v < 15 . . . . . . multiply by -1
Answer: a= 16
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the following expression:

To find the value of the coefficient "a" you must use the distributive property to multiply the expression:

until you transform it to the form:

Then we have

Therefore the value of a in the polynomial is 16
