1. 3(6a); for a=3
2. 5d(4); for d=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Solution for 3(6a)a=3 equation:

Simplifying

3(6a) * a = 3

Remove parenthesis around (6a)

3 * 6a * a = 3

Multiply 3 * 6

18a * a = 3

Multiply a * a

18a2 = 3

Solving

18a2 = 3

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Divide each side by '18'.

a2 = 0.1666666667

Simplifying

a2 = 0.1666666667

Take the square root of each side:

a = {-0.408248291, 0.408248291}

2.Solution for 5d(4)d=-2 equation:

Simplifying

5d(4) * d = -2

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:

5 * 4d * d = -2

Multiply 5 * 4

20d * d = -2

Multiply d * d

20d2 = -2

Solving

20d2 = -2

Solving for variable 'd'.

Move all terms containing d to the left, all other terms to the right.

Divide each side by '20'.

d2 = -0.1

Simplifying

d2 = -0.1

Reorder the terms:

0.1 + d2 = -0.1 + 0.1

Combine like terms: -0.1 + 0.1 = 0.0

0.1 + d2 = 0.0

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
