Question

Pls help with this algebra

Answer 1

$Hello$ $There!$

The answer is...

$a =-\frac{5}{12}$

HERE'S A EXPLAINANTION!

Add $\frac{1}{5}$ both sides...

$-\frac{1}{5} -\frac{4}{5}a+\frac{1}{5} =\frac{2}{15} +\frac{1}{5}$

Simplify:

$-\frac{4}{5}a=\frac{1}{3}$

Multiply 5 by both sides

$5(-\frac{4}{5}a=\frac{1 . 5}{3} )$

Simplify again:

$-4a=\frac{5}{3}$

Divide -4 by both sides:

$\frac{-4a}{-4}=\frac{5/3}{4}$

Simplify again..:

$a =-\frac{5}{12}$

Hopefully, this helps you!!
