Explanation: President Truman relieved General of the Army Douglas MacArthur of his commands after MacArthur made public statements which contradicted the administration's policies. MacArthur was a popular hero of World War II who was then the commander of United Nations forces fighting in the Korean War. General Douglas was known to be the greatest general at that time. He sent a statement to the 51st National Encampment of the Veterans of Foreign Wars in Chicago, it was read out aloud, in which he contradicted Truman's policy towards the island of Formosa, he said "Nothing could be more fallacious than the threadbare argument by those who advocate appeasement and defeatism in the Pacific that if we defend Formosa we alienate continental Asia." President Truman was infuriated by the word "appeasement," and discussed the possibility of relieving MacArthur. Although the statement was however later withdrawn.

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

woah dude who's thia? need more info
