Hi there!
All you need to do to solve for a is add 1.6 to both sides of the equation.
It will look like this:
a - 1.6 + 1.6 = -3.7 + 1.6
After this you will see that a = -2.1.
Hope this helps!
When in doubt just replace a with -2.1 and see if you still get -3.7. :)
Y=-8 so any x with the coordinate -8 for y i guess.
Given:
Bobby put 1/3 of his lawn mowing money into his savings
He uses the remaining 2/5 to buy a video game.
He has $12 left.
To find:
The amount did he have at first.
Solution:
Let x be the initial amount.
Bobby put 1/3 of his lawn mowing money into his savings. So, the remaining amount is

He uses the remaining 2/5 to buy a video game. Then the remaining amount is





It is given that the remaining amount is $12.



Divide both sides by 2.


Therefore, Bobby have $30 at first.
Step-by-step explanation:
the union of two sets is a new sets that contains all of the elements that are in at least one or two sets and written as (A U B)
while intersection of two sets is a new set that contains all of the elements in both sets and written as (A n B)
