Certainly! Let's solve the equation [tex]\(3A - 4A = -a\)[/tex] step-by-step.
1. Combine Like Terms:
First, we need to combine the terms involving [tex]\(A\)[/tex] on the left-hand side of the equation.
[tex]\[
3A - 4A = -A
\][/tex]
So the equation simplifies to:
[tex]\[
-A = -a
\][/tex]
2. Isolate [tex]\(A\)[/tex]:
To isolate [tex]\(A\)[/tex], we divide both sides of the equation by [tex]\(-1\)[/tex]:
[tex]\[
-A = -a \implies A = a
\][/tex]
So, the simplified equation is [tex]\(-A + a\)[/tex] and the solution for [tex]\(A\)[/tex] is [tex]\(A = a\)[/tex].
