19a-3(a-6)=66

OpenStudy (anonymous):

distribute the -3 So that gives us 19a-3a+18=66

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you figue it out?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

19a-3(a-6)=66 19a-3a+18=66 16a=48 a=3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then you add 19 and -3 together which gives us 16a+18=66

OpenStudy (anonymous):

66-18=48

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So 16a=48

OpenStudy (anonymous):

48/16=3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When distributing, do not forget the negative added to the 3. So the equation for it isn't just (3)(-6) but (-3)(-6)
