Answer:

a = 0.3

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

(5.3a - 0.8) - (1.6 - 4.7a) = 2a - (a - 0.3)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>a</u></em>

  1. Distribute negative:                    5.3a - 0.8 - 1.6 + 4.7a = 2a - a + 0.3
  2. Combine like terms:                   10a - 2.4 = a + 0.3
  3. Subtract <em>a</em> on both sides:           9a - 2.4 = 0.3
  4. Add 2.4 on both sides:               9a = 2.7
  5. Divide 9 on both sides:              a = 0.3

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in a to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute:                    (5.3(0.3) - 0.8) - (1.6 - 4.7(0.3)) = 2(0.3) - (0.3 - 0.3)
  2. Multiply:                        (1.59 - 0.8) - (1.6 - 1.41) = 0.6 - 0
  3. Subtract:                       0.79 - 0.19 = 0.6
  4. Subtract:                       0.6 = 0.6

Here we see that 0.6 does indeed equal 0.6.

∴ a = 0.3 is a solution of the equation.

Can someone help me? Becks?
Helen [10]

Answer:

Perimeter = 72

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the adjacent (next to) lengths by each corner are equal in length.

This occurs when the quadrilateral is circumscribed.

Since 4.2 is adjacent to the length which makes up the total side 20.

20 – 4.2 = 15.8.

And 15.8 + 4.2 = 20.

(7 + 9) + (9 + 4.2) + (4.2 + 15.8) + (15.8 + 7) =

(16) + (13.2) + (20) + (22.8) =

(16 + 20) + (13.2 + 22.8) =

36 + 36 =

72
