Question

Solve for a: 3a+4bc-d=5a-8j

Answer 1

A=2bc+-1/2d+4j would be your answer

Answer 2

3a + 4bc - d = 5a - 8j

Add d to both sides.

3a + 4bc = 5a - 8j + d

Subtract 4bc from each side.

3a = 5a - 8j + d - 4bc

Subtract 5a from both sides.

-2a = -8j + d - 4bc

Divide both sides by -2

a =
`((-8j -4bc + d))/(-2)`
