Answer:

-32

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/4a-5=5-2

add 5 to both sides to cancel the negative five on the left side.

-1/4a-5+5=5-2+5

-1/4a=8

multiply the equation by -4 to get the a just by itself

-4(-1/4)a=8(-4)

a=-32

Hope that helps :)

choli [55]

Answer:

16 m  × 11 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimension of the gym is 20 m x 15 m. An outbound of 2m width is to be cut out from the gym to form the basketball court.

The original length of gym = 20 m and original width of gym = 15 m

2 m would be cut at both sides of the gym length for the outbound. Also 2 m would be cut at both sides of the gym width for the outbound. Therefore:

Length of basketball court = 20 m - (2 * 2m) = 20 m - 4 m = 16 m

Width of basketball court = 15 m - (2 * 2m) = 15 m - 4 m = 11 m

Therefore the dimensions of the basketball court is:

16 m × 11 m
