Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

13 + a/11 = 7

Step 2: Solve for a

  1. Subtract 13 on both sides:                     a/11 = -6
  2. Multiply 11 on both sides:                       a = -66

Step 3: Check

Plug in a into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

  1. Substitute in a:                     13 - 66/11 = 7
  2. Divide:                                   13 - 6 = 7
  3. Subtract:                               7 = 7

Here we see that 7 does indeed equal 7.

∴ a = -66 is the solution to the equation.

Answer:

If you mean [tex]\frac{13+a}{7}=7[/tex] then the answer is [tex]a=36[/tex].

If you mean [tex]13+\frac{a}{7} =7[/tex] then the answer is [tex]a=-42[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this question, you simplify both sides of the equation and then isolate the variable.
