Answer :
so first parenthasees
4(3a-8)=12a-32
group like terms
5a+12a-32=4+13a
17a-32=4+13a
subtract 13a from both sides
4a-32=4
add 32 to both sides
4a=36
divide both sides by 4
a=6
4(3a-8)=12a-32
group like terms
5a+12a-32=4+13a
17a-32=4+13a
subtract 13a from both sides
4a-32=4
add 32 to both sides
4a=36
divide both sides by 4
a=6
