1 |
Simplify the equation |
\$ -8(x+a)=40 \$ |
2 |
Given equation |
\$ -8(x+a)=40 \$ |
3 |
Dividing on both sides of the equation by "-8" we get |
\$ (-8(x+a))/-8=40/-8 \$ |
4 |
After cancellation we get |
\$ x+a= -5 \$ |
5 |
Adding "-a" on both sides of the equation |
\$ x+a-a=-5-a \$ |
6 |
After cancellation we get |
\$ x=-5-a \$ |
7 |
Hence the solution of the given equation is |
\$ x=-5-a \$ |
