Question

Solve : 3( a +2) - 2 ( a-2 ) = -8 ( a +1)​

Answer 1

Answer:

a = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

3( a + 2 ) - 2( a - 2 ) = - 8 ( a + 1 )

⇒ 3a + 6 - 2a + 4 = - 8a - 8

⇒ a + 10 = - 8a - 8

⇒ a + 8a = - 8 - 10

⇒ 9a = - 18

⇒ ∴ a = - 2

I hope this helps :)

Answer 2

Answer:

3(a+2) - 2(a - 2) = -8(a + 1)

3a+6 - 2a + 4= -8a - 8

3a - 2a + 6 + 4 = -8a -8

a + 10 = -8a -8

10 + 8 =-8a - a

18 = -9a

a =18/-9

a = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

a = -2 ,is the right answer.
