Answer: 2a -5 = 7    and a = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If 5 is less than twice a, the the expression will be  2a -5, since 2 a is the same as 2 times a, and 5 less than 2a is the same as subtracting 5 from 2a. "is" is the same as equal to, so the whole expression has to equal 7.

2a - 5 = 7   You can solve for a by adding 5 to both sides.

   +5    +5

2a = 12         Now divide both sides by 2.

a =  6.

Delete AC and focus on the intersection of AB and BC. Keeping points B and C fixed, move point A to different locations
Amanda [17]

The image of the triangles are missing and so i have attached it.

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we delete line AC in the diagram, we are left with line AB and BC.

Now, we are told to leave points B and C fixed.

Now, if we move Point A to different locations, ∠ ABC will increase or decrease depending on the new location that point A is put.

Lastly, if we move Point A to a point on line CB, it means ∠ABC = 0° because it isn't subtended at any angle at all.
