Question

There are millions of political bloggers active on the internet is a good thing. The more the better. Finding someone who delivers the news or opinions that you want to hear becomes easier when there are many active voices. Also, it makes the debates richer.

Bloggers work independently or in small groups and can post at any time is also a good thing. Having the news exactly when they occur or having groups that are not necessarily tied to some agenda is a bigger possibility with independent media.

Question 11

Lack of editing or fact checking is unfortunately a common bad thing. It isn't strange to see blogs just reposting some bad information, although it can be seen even in the mainstream media.

8 - (2a + 7) = a + 40     distribute/multiply - into (2a + 7)

8 - 2a - 7 = a + 40

1 - 2a = a + 40       add 2a on both sides

1 = 3a + 40         subtract 40 on both sides

-39 = 3a       divide 3 on both sides

-13 = a

[proof]

8 - (2a + 7) = a + 40

8 - (2(-13) + 7) = -13 + 40

8 - (-26 + 7) = 27

8 - (-19) = 27

8 + 19 = 27

27 = 27
