Just solve the equation

Given:

-2(3a+1) = 5(1+a)

-6a - 2 = 5 + 5a

11 a = -7

a = -7/11

Answer:

a = -7/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute -2 and 5 through the parentheses, -6a - 2 = 5 + 5a

Move the Variable and constant  to a proper side, -6a - 5a = 5 + 2

Calculate like terms, -11a = 7

Divide both sides of the equation by -11, a = -7/11

Final answer, a = -7/11
