Question

Solve
10a -7 = 21 - ба​

Answer 1

A=1.75

Explanation:

`10a + 6a = 21 + 7 \\ 16a = 28 \\ divide \: both \: sides \: by \: 16 \\ a = 1.75 \: or 1 \ (3)/(4)`

Answer 2

a = 7/4

Explanation:

10a -7 = 21 - 6а​

Add 6a to each side

10a+6a -7 = 21 - 6а+6a

16a -7 = 21

Add 7 to each side

16a+7-7=21+7

16a = 28

Divide each side by 16

16a/16 = 28/16

a = 7/4
