Answer:

160

Step-by-step explanation:

60% of a + 24 = 3a/4

=> 60a/100 + 24 = 3a/4

=> 3a/5 + 24 = 3a/4

=> 3a / 4 - 3a/5 = 24

=> ( 15a - 12a) / 20 = 24

=> 3a / 20 = 24

=> a = 24 × 20 / 3

=> a = 8 × 20

=> a = 160

Answer:

Addition: -1 + -3 = -4

Subtraction: (-4) - 5 = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Since adding a positive makes a negative number stay negative, it equals -4.

Then by subtracting a negative with a positive (5), the number stays negative once again, which then equals -10.
