Answer:
Therefore solution for a is
[tex]a=\frac{3b}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
7a - 2b = 5a + b
To Find:
a = ?
Solution:
7a - 2b = 5a + b .................Given
First take all the 'a' terms to the left hand side and 'b' terms to the right-hand side of the equation,
∴ [tex]7a-5a=2b+b\\\\2a=3b[/tex]
Now dividing by 2 on both the side we get
∴ [tex]\frac{2a}{2} =\frac{3b}{2} \\\\\therefore a=\frac{3b}{2}[/tex]
Therefore solution for a is
[tex]a=\frac{3b}{2}[/tex]
Answer:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
a = 3b/2
