Which legislation played the greatest role in prohibiting the formation and operation of monopolies in the late
1800

the big question intentionally left by halloween 2018 is whether michael myers is really dead or not. the last time we see him, michael is trapped in the cage just as laurie's house starts to burn. however, when the film cut back to the flames, the room appears empty.

explanation:

hope this and mark me as brainliest if you want.

simplify brackets

8 - 2a - 7 = a + 40

simplify 8 - 2a - 7 to -2a + 1

-2a + 1 = a + 40

add 2a to both sides

1 = a + 40 + 2a

simplify a + 40 + 2a to 3a + 40

1 = 3a + 40

subtract 40 from both sides

1 - 40 = 3a

simplify 1 - 40 o -39

-39 = 3a

divide both sides by 3

-39/3 = a

simplify 39/3 to 13

-13 = a

switch sides

a = -13
