Why did the tejanos resent the americans settling in texas

The Tejanos resented the fact that the settlers from the United States came illegally and settled in their territory. Soon more and more came and they began to occupy more lands which the Tejanos resented. Nonetheless the Texans and Tejanos fought Sta. Ana when he implemented unfair policies in Texas.

on my last question

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
