What is -296 = -8 (8a +5)? With work provided

Mathematics
1 answer:
Feliz [49]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify both sides of the equation.

−296=−8(8a+5)

−296=(−8)(8a)+(−8)(5)

−296=−64a+−40

−296=−64a−40

Flip the equation

−64a−40=−296

Add 40 to both sides

−64a−40+40=−296+40

−64a=−256

Divide both sides by -64

(−64a ) / (−64) = (−256) / (−64)

a = 4

Find the difference: (20x + 3) - (7x - 5) *
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

27x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, we use commutative property to get the like terms together.

(20x + 7x) - (3-5)

Now we can solve the equations inside the parenthesis.

27x - (-2)

Because these aren't like terms, this is as far as we can go. Meaning 27x - 2

is out answer.
