Don't worry just break it down and it becomes easier. So picture a number line, at -11 . To take away 8 it means move to the left 8 spaces. This leaves u with -19. Then negative 19 plus positive 19 cancels each other out to leave 0. Finally, using the number line again, 0 take away 6 will leave u with -6
Hi!
new too :-D
7a-14=4a+1
first u have to subtract 4a from both sides
3a - 14 = 1
then add 14 to both sides to give:
3a = 15
finally divide both sides by 3.
so a=15/3
a = 5
5x+8=-16+7x
so u want to put the x together and the number together in order to find the value of x.
firstly, add 16 to Both sides, this gives : 5x+24=7x
then take away 5x from both sides, this gives : 7x = 24
x= 24/7
x =3.4285.....
Pi is a mathematical term which is used mostly when talking about circular shapes in geometry and algebra. It's a symbol which represents a very long never ending number.
