Final answer:

The solution set for the equation 22 - 2a = 0, after isolating variable a, is a single value, 11, which do not corresponds with answer option.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the solution set for the equation 22 - 2a = 0, we need to isolate the variable a. We start by subtracting 22 from both sides of the equation:

22 - 2a - 22 = 0 - 22

-2a = -22

Now, we divide both sides by -2 to solve for a:

-2a / -2 = -22 / -2

a = 11

Therefore, the solution set for the equation contains only one value, which is 11. This does not corresponds to any of the given options.
