A=-10 all you do to find a is simply add 2 to both sides of the equal sign

Answer:

a= -10

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this you would need to isolate a, or make a stand alone on its side of the equation

a-2=-12    Original equation

a-2+2 = -12+2     Isolating the variable(adding the 2 will cancel the -2 on the left side of the equation)

a= -12+2             Simplification

a= -10                 The answer!!!

I hope this helps!!!

A store sells rope by the meter. The equation p=0.8L represents the price p(in dollars) of a piece of nylon rope that is L meter
Margaret [11]

Answer:

1. $0.80 or 80 cents

2. 1.25 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation p=0.8L represents the price p (in dollars) of a piece of nylon rope that is L meters long.

1. To find how much the nylon costs per meter, take L = 1 (this means you are calculating the price of a piece of nylon rope that is 1 meter long):

L=1,\\ \\p=\$0.8\cdot 1=\$0.80

2. To find how long a piece of nylon rope that costs $1.00 is, substitute into the equation p = 1:

p=1,\\ \\1=0.8L\\ \\L=\dfrac{1}{0.8}=\dfrac{10}{8}=\dfrac{5}{4}=1.25\ meters
