Answer:

a = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

3a−6a+2=8a+20−5a ( original equation)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3a−6a+2=8a+20−5a

3a+−6a+2=8a+20+−5a

(3a+−6a)+(2)=(8a+−5a)+(20)(Combine Like Terms)

−3a+2=3a+20

−3a+2=3a+20

Step 2: Subtract 3a from both sides.

−3a+2−3a=3a+20−3a

−6a+2=20

Step 3: Subtract 2 from both sides.

−6a+2−2=20−2

−6a=18

Step 4: Divide both sides by -6.

−6a/−6 = 18/-6

a=−3

The error is in the first step. It should be (+8 plus or minus the square root of the quantity eight squared minus four times one times seven ). This is because "b" is -8 so -b is -(-8) = +8
