Simplify:
5(a + 5) + -3 = 3(2 + -1a)
Reorder the terms:
5(5 + a) + -3 = 3(2 + -1a)
(5 * 5 + a * 5) + -3 = 3(2 + -1a)
(25 + 5a) + -3 = 3(2 + -1a)
Reorder the terms again:
25 + -3 + 5a = 3(2 + -1a)
Combine like terms:
]25 + -3 = 22
22 + 5a = 3(2 + -1a)
22 + 5a = (2 * 3 + -1a * 3)
22 + 5a = (6 + -3a)
Solve:
22 + 5a = 6 + -3a
To solve for variable 'a':
You have to move all terms containing A to the left, all other terms to the right.
Then add '3a' to each side of the equation:
22 + 5a + 3a = 6 + -3a + 3a
Combine like terms:
5a + 3a = 8a
22 + 8a = 6 + -3a + 3a
Combine like terms again:
-3a + 3a = 0
22 + 8a = 6 + 0
22 + 8a = 6
Add '-22' to each side of the equation.:
22 + -22 + 8a = 6 + -22
Combine like terms:
22 + -22 = 0
0 + 8a = 6 + -22
8a = 6 + -22
Combine like terms once more:
6 + -22 = -16
8a = -16
Divide each side by '8'.
a = -2
Simplify:
a = -2
Answer: a=-2
Hope I could help! :)
Answer:
Imperfect substitutes
explanation:
The choices above are not perfect substitutes, meaning they can not be perfectly or directly replace the other. Imperfect substitutes are close substitutes but not perfect substitutes. Unlike perfect substitutes, imperfect substitutes satisfies same utility but has different characteristics and therefore not entirely substitutable. For example, while one may want to have the 40 marks too, he'd rather have 60 marks even if the criteria for a 60 mark score was increasingly hard.
when dividing two fractions ex:
(1/3) / (1/6)
we take the reciprocal (we switch the bottom and top numbers) of the second fraction and then change the division into multiplication
(1/3) x (6/1)
multiply across to get
6/3
which is 2
hope this helps
