7a+10=2a 7a+10-2a=0 5a+10=0 5a=-10 a=-2
3a 4b equals 7a 4b?
Clearly, there are some signs missing. So let's try the four possibilities for the second terms: 1. + and + 3a + 4b = 7a + 4b Subtract 4b from each side: 3a = 7a Subtract 3a from each side: 0 = 4a Answer : a = 0, b indeterminate (ie can have any vaue). 2. + and - 3a + 4b = 7a - 4b Subtract 4b from each side: 3a = 7a - 8b Subtract 7a from each side: -4a = -8b or 4a = 8b Answer: a = 2b 3. - and - 3a - 4b = 7a - 4b Add 4b to each side: 3a = 7a Subtract 3a from each side: 0 = 4a Answer : a = 0, b indeterminate (ie can have any vaue). 4. - and + 3a - 4b = 7a + 4b Add 4b to each side: 3a = 7a + 8b Subtract 7a from each side: -4a = 8b or 4a = -8b Answer: a = -2b Can't do better than that with the information available.
