<h2>Answer:  a = ¹/₂ (4 + b)</h2>

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

To solve for 'a' we have to make it the subject of the equation. Since there are two unknowns ('a' & 'b'), we won't get a numerical value of 'a', but an expression in terms of the second unknown 'b'.

Since 2a - b = 4                    <em> [add 'b' to both sides]</em>

then          2a = 4 + b             <em>[divide both sides by 2 = multiplying by  ¹/₂]</em>

                   a = ¹/₂ (4 + b)

Roy planted corn on 1/5of his land. If he planted45 acres of corn, how many acres of land doeshe have?(A) 90(B) 112 (1/2)(C) 135
melisa1 [442]

Correct option is C. He has 225 acres of land .

Let the Number of acres of land Roy have = x

As he planted corn on  1/5  of his land,

Number of acres of his land planted with corn =  1/5  × Number of acres of land Roy have

=  x/5

As he planted 45 acres of his land with corn,

⇒ x/5​

 = 45

⇒x = 45 × 5

⇒x = 225

Therefore, number of acres of land Roy have is   225  .
