Question

Solve for the varabile a -10=a/5-2

Answer 1

a-10=a/5-2

a-10=a/3

3(a-10=a/3)

3a-30=a

3a-a=30

2a=30

a=15

Answer 2

`a - 10 = (a)/(5 ) - 2 \\ \\ \implies \: a - 10 = (a - 10)/(5) \\ \\ \implies \: 5a - 50 = a - 10 \\ \\ \implies \: 5a - a = - 10 + 50 \\ \\ \implies \: 4a = 40 \\ \\ \implies \: a = \cancel(40)/(4) \\ \\ \implies \: a = 10`
