The answer is $- 5 a + 14.2$ $-5a+14.2$ , or $14.2 - 5 a$ $14.2-5a$ .

Explanation:

$8 + 4 a + 6.2 - 9 a$ $8+4a+6.2-9a$

Gather like terms.

$4 a - 9 a + 8 + 6.2$ $4a-9a+8+6.2$

Simplify.

$- 5 a + 14.2$ $-5a+14.2$ $\leftarrow$ $larr$ $Try this instead$ $color(red)("Try this instead")$ .

This can also be written as:

$14.2 - 5 a$ $14.2-5a$ $\leftarrow$ $larr$ This means the same as $- 5 a + 14.2$ $-5a+14.2$ , but maybe the computer program wants it the other way. If it's still incorrect, contact your teacher.
