Solve . - 3a + 8 = 14

Mathematics
1 answer:
zysi [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

-3a + 8 = 14

First you want to combine the constants by subtracting 8 from both sides.

-3a = 6

Now you want to isolate a by dividing both sides by -3.

a = -2

Check your answer by plugging -2 back into the equation.

-3(-2) + 8 = 14

6 + 8 = 14

14 = 14

Your answer is correct.

Hope this helps!

The correct answer is : Step 3: He should have divided both sides by -5 because in order to isolate x from -5x, you must divide its coefficient, which is -5. Dividing 5 from both sides leaves -1x or -x.
