Answer:

-35

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]-5 = \frac{1}{7}a\\-35 = a[/tex]

I got this by multiplying the numerator by 7. This allows the denominator to be the same as the numerator, thus equalling 1.

1 * a = a

Answer: a = -35

Step-by-step explanation:

1. -5 = 1/7(a) || GIVEN

2. -5 * (7) = (7) * 1/7(a) || Isolate "a" on one side of the equation by multiplying 7 to the other side.

3. -35 = a
