depends what the value of 'a' is.
5a + 4b - 3a =(5a - 3a) + 4b =2a + 4b =2 (a + 2b)
3a x 2a =24
Simplifying a = 3a + 12 Reorder the terms: a = 12 + 3a Solving a = 12 + 3a Solving for variable 'a'. Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-3a' to each side of the equation. a + -3a = 12 + 3a + -3a Combine like terms: a + -3a = -2a -2a = 12 + 3a + -3a Combine like terms: 3a + -3a = 0 -2a = 12 + 0 -2a = 12 Divide each side by '-2'. a = -6 Simplifying a = -6
3a + a = 4a Example: a = 5 (3x5) + 5 = 15 + 5 = 20 = 4 x 5
2a2
Let a = 2.4Therefore (2 x 2.4) + 4 = 8.8And 16 - (3 x 2.4) = 8.8
x + 2a
2a2 x 3a-3 = (2 x 3)a(2 + -3) = 6a-1
The area, in terms of a, is 2a*(3a-4) = 6a2-8a However, it is not possible to give its area in terms of x without knowing anything about x, such as how x relates to a.
x^3 + ax + 3a + 3x^2 = (x^3 + 3x^2) + (ax + 3a) = x^2(x + 3) + a(x + 3) = (x + 3)(x^2 + a)
