3-16/a= 5
subtract 3-16
-13/a=5
multiply both sides by a
-13=5a
flip the equation
5a= -13
divide both sides by 5
a= -2.6

check the equation
3-16/-2.6=5
-13/-2.6=5
5=5

My last function question. Please break this down for me. Brainliest answer will be given
cupoosta [38]
Remember these two combinations: logab=loga+logb, log(a/b)=loga-logb
3logx=logx^3
(1/2)log(x+2)=log(x+2)^(1/2)
2log(z-4)=log(z-4)^2
so the given expression can be combined into log{[(x^3)(z-4)^2]/(x+2)^(1/2)}
