00:01 To begin this problem, we're going to isolate that variable by doing order of operations backwards.
00:04 We start with our adding and subtracting, so we're going to move my three to the other side.
00:08 I now have two -fifths, a -squared is equal to, 11 minus 3 is 8.
00:13 Next step, start to get rid of the fraction there, so i'm going to multiply by the reciprocal, and that will eliminate the 5 and the 2 on the left.
00:20 So now i have a -squared is equal to, 8 times 5 is 40, 40 divided by 2 is 20...
