Q. Solve for a a .\newline3.2−3.3a=−5.05 3.2-3.3 a=-5.05 \newlineAnswer: a= a=
  1. Isolate aa: Which operation should be used to isolate aa?\newlineIn 3.2−3.3a=−5.053.2 - 3.3a = -5.05, we should first move the constant term 3.23.2 to the other side of the equation by subtracting 3.23.2 from both sides.\newlineSubtract 3.23.2 from both sides of the equation.
  2. Move constant term: Perform the subtraction to find the new equation.\newline−3.3a=−5.05−3.2-3.3a = -5.05 - 3.2\newlineCalculate −5.05−3.2-5.05 - 3.2.\newline−5.05−3.2=−8.25-5.05 - 3.2 = -8.25\newlineSo, −3.3a=−8.25-3.3a = -8.25
  3. Perform subtraction: Now, divide both sides by the coefficient of aa, which is −3.3-3.3, to solve for aa.\newlineDivide by −3.3-3.3.\newlinea=−8.25/−3.3a = -8.25 / -3.3\newlineCalculate −8.25/−3.3-8.25 / -3.3.\newlinea=2.5a = 2.5
