8 (4 - a) = 2a

will make brainiest if you answer correctly and with explanation

a=32/a

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute:

8 x 4 = 32 8 x - a = - 8a

32-8a=2a

add 8a to both sides:

32-8a+8a=2a+8a

Combine like terms:

32=10a

divide by 10 to get a by itself:

32/10=a

flip it around

a=32/10
