Answer:

a=8,-11

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2=-3a+88

a^2+3a=88

a^2+3a-88=0

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

x=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{3^2-4(1)(-88)} }{2(1)}

x=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{9+352} }{2}

x=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{361} }{2}

x=\frac{-3\pm19 }{2}

x=-11 and x=8

Therefore, the values of a are 8 and -11.
