5a-14 = -5 + 8a
= 5a-14+14= -5 + 8a +14
= 5a = 9 + 8a
5a -8a = 9
-3a = 9
-3a/-3 = 9/-3
a = -3

a million/2(14+8a)=9a a million. Multiply each thing in the parenthesis by ability of a million/2 and also you get 7+4a=9a 2. Subtract 4a from both aspect and also you get 7=5a 3. Divide both aspect by ability of five and also you get 7/5=a Or Use a calculator and divide 7 by ability of five. It quite relies upon on how your instructor needs the perfect answer.
