Answer: a=-0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
14a - (2a +9)=2/3 (12a-18)
14a - 2a -9=2/3 * 6(2a-3)
12a-9=2*6/3 (2a-3)
12a-9=2*2(2a-3)
12a-9=4(2a-3)
12a-9=8a-12
4a-9=-12
4a=-3
a=-3/4
a=-0.75

Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
Note the squared value in column 3 which is the square of 1 more than the row number, that is
row 2 → (2 + 1)² →3²
row 3 → (3 + 1)² → 4²
Find the square root of 676 = 26 → (25 + 1)² = 26²
Hence the row number is 25
(b)
The pattern in column 1 is [ row number × (row number + 2 ) + 1 ]
row number is n then n(n + 2) + 1 = n² + 2n + 1
