Answer 1

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 3 because if one side is 8 and you have 2 on one side you do 8-2 which is 6. Since you have 2 a’s you do 6 divide by 2 which is 3. This means that the answer is c

Answer 2

C

Step-by-step explanation:

There is 8 on one side and 2a + 2 on the other so we can eliminate answer D.
8=2a+2

We take away 2 from both sides getting a on one side. So 6=2a. To find a we do the inverse way to solve the equation. To get 6 we multiply "a" by 2. To get "a" we dp 6/2 = 3. boom a=3 so C is your answer
