Explanation:

Opposition to the war spread in and out of the United States among the youth, fueling the hippie movement that had begun a few years earlier. The American universities were the scene of demonstrations against the involvement of the United States in this undeclared and unjustified war in the opinion of many. There were violent encounters between the students and the police with shots and dead. In October of 1967, 200,000 protesters marched in front of the Pentagon, demanding peace, being one of the most critical points of the pacifist movement. It is also true that this situation coincided with one of the moments of maximum economic prosperity, which gave a lot of security to the youth and possibilities of changing customs. But the main factor of protest was military service, mandatory for all American males and with it the possibility of being sent to Vietnam.

The maximum level of opposition to the war by American society occurred after the Tet Offensive, in which approximately 14,000 American soldiers died. For the American people, the Tet was a complete defeat. Not only the optimistic assertions of their military had been totally wrong, but the communists could enter anywhere in South Vietnam. It had completely broken the feeling of advancing in the war and their territory had been violated. All the effort of almost three years of campaign proved useless. For many more than those who thought about it at the beginning of the year, Vietnam was nothing more than a slaughterhouse and it was time to leave it.

Finally, as a result of the turbulent social environment and the little support to the war, the United States ended its participation in 1973.

simplify brackets

8 - 2a - 7 = a + 40

simplify 8 - 2a - 7 to -2a + 1

-2a + 1 = a + 40

add 2a to both sides

1 = a + 40 + 2a

simplify a + 40 + 2a to 3a + 40

1 = 3a + 40

subtract 40 from both sides

1 - 40 = 3a

simplify 1 - 40 o -39

-39 = 3a

divide both sides by 3

-39/3 = a

simplify 39/3 to 13

-13 = a

switch sides

a = -13
