3 (a - 1) + 31 - 11a = 4 ( 2a + 3)
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

-⅖

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to simplify the given equation and find out the value of a , as ,

=> 3(a-1)+31-11a = 4(2a+3)

=> 3a -3+31-11a = 8a + 12

=> -8a -28 = 8a + 12

=> 16a = -28-12

=> 16a = -40

=> a = -2/5

<h3>• Hence the value of a is -⅖ .</h3>

Solve for y 8x-7y=23 (fill all of the boxes)
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

i think this is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

8x + -7y = 23

Solving

8x + -7y = 23

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '7y' to each side of the equation.

8x + -7y + 7y = 23 + 7y

Combine like terms: -7y + 7y = 0

8x + 0 = 23 + 7y

8x = 23 + 7y

Divide each side by '8'.

x = 2.875 + 0.875y

Simplifying

x = 2.875 + 0.875y
