Answer:
y = 2x - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Looks like we already have the slope of this line: It is 2. Working with the point (1, -5), we have x = 1 and y = -5 and can from this info easily find the y-intercept, b:
y = mx + b becomes
y = 2x + b, which in turn becomes
-5 = 2(1) + b, or
b = -7,
and so the desired equation is y = 2x - 7

Answer: a = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
First, open up the brackets, and solve it
-12a -42 = -22 -8a. (-6 x 2a, and -6 x 7)
bring the -8a to the left side, so that all the a’s are together
-12a -42 + 8a = -22 (add -42 on both sides like we did with -8a)
-12a + 8a = -22 + 42
solve
-4a = 20
divide -4 on both sides
a = -5
