First of all you need to get rid of the -27 on the left side, to do so you add 27 to both sides so it becomes: 5/8a=20 Now you can divide it by 5 to get: 1/8a=4 Now multiply it by 8 to get: a=32
What is x First you use distributive property 60x+70=26 Next subtract 70 on both sides which gives you -44 60x=-44 Then you divide 60 into -44 which will give you -1.36__36 is repeathing so X=-1.36 repeading
