Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression:

        4x + 2y  = 36

  coordinates  = (a,4)

Solution:

  From the given coordinates;

       x = a

       y = 4

       4x + 2y  = 36

 Substitute for the values and find "a"

    4a + 2(4)  = 36

     4a + 8  = 36

     4a  = 36 - 8

     4a  = 28

      a  = 7

The solution is 7
