Question

3. Match each equation with the corresponding equation solved for a *a = 2b/5a= -2b/ 5a = -2ba = 2b - 5a = 5 - 26a + 2b = 55a = 2ba + 5 = 2b5(a + 2b) = 05a + 2b = 0

Answer 1

a = -2b/5



Solving the equations we have

1. a + 2b = 5

Solving for a we get

a = 5 - 2b

2. 5a = 2b

Solving for a we get

a = 2b/5

3. a + 5 = 2b

Solving for a we get

a = 2b - 5

4. 5(a + 2b) = 0

Solving for a we get

a+2b = 0

a = -2b

5. 5a + 2b = 0

Solving for a we get

5a = -2b

a = -2b/5

Answer 2

Solving the equations we have

1. a + 2b = 5

Solving for a we get

`a=5-2b`

2. 5a = 2b

Solving for a we get

`a=(2b)/(5)`

3. a + 5 = 2b

Solving for a we get

`a=2b-5`

4. 5(a + 2b) = 0

Solving for a we get

`\begin{gathered} a+2b=0 \\ a=-2b \end{gathered}`

5. 5a + 2b = 0

Solving for a we get

`\begin{gathered} 5a=-2b \\ a=(-2b)/(5) \end{gathered}`
