Answer:

a = -11, 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

-7 =  |a-3| / -2

Multiply both sides by -2:

|a - 3| = 14

So a - 3 = 14

Giving a = 17

or

a - 3 =- -14

giving a = -11.

Checking these values:

-7 = |17-3| / -2 = 14/-2 = -7  

- so a = 17 is a solution.

-7 = |-11-3| / -2 = 14/-2 = -7

so a = -11 is also a solution.

damaskus [11]

The geometric term described as an infinite set of points that has length but not width is called a line. It has a negligible with and depth. In geometry, a line located in the plane is defined as the set of points whose coordinates satisfy a given linear equation. A line segment however is a line connected by two dots far apart from each other and then connected. For example is the equation y=mx+b. This is a slope intercept form which is a linear equation.
