Why are chhoeten built in Bhautan? Give Three reasons.

The chorten monument is perhaps the most ubiquitous religious architecture of Bhutan. ... As the representation of the Buddha's mind or spirit (statues represent the body and holy books represent the speech), the chorten is also one of the most important shrines in the Buddhist tradition.

8 - (2a + 7) = a + 40     distribute/multiply - into (2a + 7)

8 - 2a - 7 = a + 40

1 - 2a = a + 40       add 2a on both sides

1 = 3a + 40         subtract 40 on both sides

-39 = 3a       divide 3 on both sides

-13 = a

[proof]

8 - (2a + 7) = a + 40

8 - (2(-13) + 7) = -13 + 40

8 - (-26 + 7) = 27

8 - (-19) = 27

8 + 19 = 27

27 = 27
