The area of the region on the map is 97.5 miles
Subtract 5 from both sides
a/-8 = 4/7 - 5
simplify 4/7 - 5 to 31/-7
a/-8 = 31/-7
multiply both sides by 8
-a = 31/-7 x 8
simplify 31/7 x 8 to 248/7
-a = 248/7
multiply both sides by -1.
The answer is a = 248/7
The words are the explanations of the steps and the dark bolded words are the work shown for each step.
3(5x+2)=8x+20
15x+6=8x+20
15x-8x=20-6
7x=14
then you divide both sides by 2
The answer is 2.
C because I did the mean value theorem and got that as the solution.
