Question

-4(a-3)/3=4

Answer 1

Do distributive property first!

Answer 2

Hmm wait it is divided by 3

Answer 3

Multiply both sides by 3 than do distributive property c;

Answer 4

wo what answer did you get?

Answer 5

What answer did you get? :P

Answer 6

we are stuck can't honestly figure it out.

Answer 7

"We" ? :P

Answer 8

my friend and I

Answer 9

\[\frac{ -4(a-3) }{ 3 } = 4\]

Multiply both sides by 3

We get

\[-4(a-3) = 12 \]

Then we do distributive property to get

\[-4a - 12 = 12\]

Now we add both sides by 12 to get

\[-4a = 24\]

Now divide both sides by -4 to isolate the variable and keep it positive

We get

\[a = -6\]

Answer 10

To check the answer, put -6 in for a :)

Answer 11

I see it now - thank you

Answer 12

No problem :)

Answer 13

okay here is anohter -
3(a+7)/2 = 21

Yes I'm stuck. Tried this one the way you showed above - which made total sense, but can't figure this one out.
