Simplifying 2(3a + -4) = 16 Reorder the terms: 2(-4 + 3a) = 16 (-4 * 2 + 3a * 2) = 16 (-8 + 6a) = 16 Solving -8 + 6a = 16 Solving for variable 'a'. Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '8' to each side of the equation. -8 + 8 + 6a = 16 + 8 Combine like terms: -8 + 8 = 0 0 + 6a = 16 + 8 6a = 16 + 8 Combine like terms: 16 + 8 = 24 6a = 24 Divide each side by '6'. a = 4 Simplifying a = 4
