Answer:

Final answer is
a_0=-9

Explanation:

Given equation is
5-a_0=14

Now we need to solve the given equation
5-a_0=14 for the unknownd variable
a_0 .

We can do that by isolating
a_0

To isolate
a_0, let's subtract 5 from both sides


5-a_0-5=14-5


-a_0=9

multiply both sides by -1


-a_0(-1)=9(-1)


a_0=-9

Hence final answer is
a_0=-9
