Question

Solve each equation. 1/3a = -5 a = ? 12 - b = 12.5 b = ? -0.1 = -10c c = ?

Answer 1

Answer:

a = -15, b = -.5, c = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3a = -5 --> multiply each side with 3 --> a = -15

12 - b = 12.5 --> subtract 12 from both sides --> -b = .5 --> multiply each side with -1 to get b positive --> b = -.5

.1 = -10c --> multiply each side with -10 --> c = -1
