Answer:


a = -5

Explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

We are given an equation:


a -2 = 3 + \displaystyle(6a)/(3)

We have to solve this equation for a.

The solving is shown below:


a -2 = 3 + \displaystyle(6a)/(3)\\\text{Taking constants on one side and terms with a on other side}\\\\\Rightarrow a - (6a)/(3) = 3 + 2\\\\\Rightarrow (3a-6a)/(3) = 5\\\\\Rightarrow (-3a)/(3)= 5\\\\\Rightarrow -a = 5\\\\\Rightarrow a = -5

Thus, a = -5.
