Solution

The correct option is B
-51/8

$\frac{5}{2} x + \frac{7}{2} x = 56 - 2 x \Rightarrow \frac{5}{2} x + \frac{7}{2} x + 2 x = 56 \Rightarrow \frac{5 x + 7 x + 4 x}{2} = 56 \Rightarrow 16 x = 56 \times 2 \Rightarrow x = \frac{56 \times 2}{16} = 7 N o w, \frac{2 a}{3} = 1 - \frac{3 x}{4} \Rightarrow \frac{2 a}{3} = 1 - \frac{3 \times 7}{4} \Rightarrow \frac{2 a}{3} = \frac{4 - 21}{4} = - \frac{17}{4} \Rightarrow 8 a = - 51 \Rightarrow a = \frac{- 51}{8}$
