Solve for a,a.

minus, a, plus, 28, equals, 14
−a+28=
14

1 answer

To solve the equation \(-a + 28 = 14\), we can follow these steps:

  1. Subtract 28 from both sides of the equation:

\[ -a + 28 - 28 = 14 - 28 \]

This simplifies to:

\[ -a = -14 \]

  1. Now, multiply both sides by -1 to solve for \(a\):

\[ a = 14 \]

So the solution is:

\[ a = 14 \]
