What value makes 3(a+1.5)= -1.5 true

Mathematics
1 answer:
Reika [66]3 years ago
3 0
First, write the equation:
3(a+1.5) = -1.5
Next, you can distribute 3 into the parentheses by multiplying 3 by a and 1.5. It should look like this:
3a + 4.5 = -1.5
When trying to find the value of a variable, you want to get the variable to one side of the equation by itself. Subtract 4.5 from both sides of the equation to get:
3a = -6
Now, divide both sides by 3 to get your final answer:
a= -2
The value that makes the equation true is -2
Hope this helped!

How do you write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of 2 and contains the point (1,1)
harkovskaia [24]
First you have to put it into point-slope form before you can write it in slope-intercept form which is y-y1=m(x-x1)

Y-1=2(x-1)
Distribute the 2 to the x and -1
Y-1=2x-2
Move it all to one side
Y=2x-1
