Simplifying 3a + 2b + -8a + b = 0 Reorder the terms: 3a + -8a + 2b + b = 0 Combine like terms: 3a + -8a = -5a -5a + 2b + b = 0 Combine like terms: 2b + b = 3b -5a + 3b = 0 Solving -5a + 3b = 0 Solving for variable 'a'. Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-3b' to each side of the equation. -5a + 3b + -3b = 0 + -3b Combine like terms: 3b + -3b = 0 -5a + 0 = 0 + -3b -5a = 0 + -3b Remove the zero: -5a = -3b Divide each side by '-5'. a = 0.6b Simplifying a = 0.6b
