5+14 a equal nine a -5

a = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

5 + 14a = 9a - 5

Subtract 9a from both sides of the equation

5 + 5a = -5

Subtract 5a from both sides of the equation

5 = -5 - 5a

Add 5 to both sides of the equation

10 = -5a

Divide both sides of the equation by -5

a = -2

step-by-step explanation:

i'm pretty sure it would take 20 hours because it's half the men so you multiply the number of hours it takes by 2

x = 2

step-by-step explanation:

if sr parallel to ba then the sides bc and ac are in proportion, that is

= ← substitute values

= ( cross- multiply )

27x = 6(4x + 1)

27x = 24x + 6 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

3x = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 2
