The answer is 52 if you get the manager special
a < -9
Rearrange:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the greater than sign from both sides of the inequality :
5*a+18-(-27)<0
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Pulling out like terms :
1.1 Pull out like factors :
5a + 45 = 5 • (a + 9)
Equation at the end of step 1 :
Step 2 :
2.1 Divide both sides by 5
Solve Basic Inequality :
2.2 Subtract 9 from both sides
a < -9
Answer:

Explanation:
We have been given with the quadratic equation 
We have general formula to find the roots of a quadratic equation first we find the discriminant with formula

and after that to find the variable suppose x we have the formula

And general quadratic equation is

On comparing the given quadratic equation with genral quadratic equation we will have values
a=1, b=-7 and c=-6
After substituting these values in the formula we will get

After substituting in the formula to find x we will get

I would go with A. An estimate.
This may not be the right answer but Good Luck!
