Answer:

a = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

a  - \frac{2a}{5}  = 3 \\ 5a - 2a = 15 \\ 3a = 15 \\ a = 5

We multiply both sides by 5 before solving for a.

How do I do this I really don't understand anything here
Lera25 [3.4K]

The red arrows show that the lines are parallel, but using the stuff given you can make an equation.
its hard to explain without drawing but starting from the 60 if you can make a Z you will get alternate angles and that mean that the given equation MUST be equal to 60. So,

8x-4=60

8x=60+4

8x=64

x=64/8

x=8 (is your answer)

hope you understand

Solve the system of linear equations by substitution.<br> 3x + y = -9<br> y=5x+7
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

The solution is x = -2, y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with the equation 3x + y = -9

Substitute the y for 5x+7 seen in the second equation

Now you have 3x + (5x+7) = -9

Lets solve:

Let's add the x's

Now we have 8x + 7 = -9

Substracy seven from each side

Now we have 8x = -16

Now let's divide 8 on each side

Now we have x = -2

Now lets plug in -2 to the second equation

The second equation is y = 5x+7

When we plug in -2 we get y=5(-2)+7

We multiply

We now have y = -10+7

Add

y = -3

The solution is x = -2, y = -3
