In this question, you're solving for a.
Solve for a:
-84 = 6(4a - 2)
<em>Distribute the 6 to the variables inside the parenthesis</em>
-84 = 24a - 12
<em>Add 12 to both sides</em>
-72 = 24a
<em>Divide both sides by 24</em>
-3 = a
This means that answer choice D would be the correct answer.
Answer:
D). -3
First step Multiply both sides of the equation by second step Reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor
Answer: A=-285
2 years is the same as 24 months, so the equation would be:
685 = 24x + 85, where x is the monthly fee.
600 = 24x
600/24 = x
x = 25
The monthly fee is $25.
If those lines are absolute value then the answer is 0 if they are supposed to be parenthesis then the answer is -6
