beowulf is considered an epic poem because it describes the actions of a great warrior.

beowulf is taken into account an epos. in this poem, the main character may be a hero who travels nice distances to prove his strength at not possible odds against supernatural demons and beasts. in the poem, beowulf was a young warrior and he leaves his country to hrothgar, as hrothgar was in a great trouble.

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
