Solve: 7 +42-32-32 = 14.3-2a +7
a = -3
a= 0
a= 3
no solution

a = 18.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms on the left side of the equation first. Add 7 and 42, then subtract 32 from the answer you get, then subtract 32 from that answer. This is going by order of PEMDAS.

Remember PEMDAS: (numbers 3 & 4 and numbers 5 & 6 are solved from left to right)

After combining like terms on the left side, you get -15. Now combine like terms on the right side of the equation by adding 14.3 and 7.

Get -2a alone by subtracting 21.3 from both sides.

Divide both sides by -2.

In this equation, a should equal .
