First of all, you would use the FOIL method for -5(a + 3). This means to just multiply -5 to all of the values in the parenthesis. This would equal:
-5a -15 = -55
Then after, you would add 15 for both sides and get -5a = -40
Divide by -5 on both sides, you get a = 8.

No, table a is not a function. It is not a function because no x coordinates can share the same y coordinates.
I think 1 sorry if it is wrong
f(x)=X+7 is {2, 10} then the domain must be 2 is answer
Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
To see if a line is parallel to y = -(2/3)x + 8 you need to check if the coefficients at y and x are of the same ratio. This immediately removes answers A and C, because of the wrong sign at x compared to y.
What's left is to see which of the answers B and D passes through (4, -5) by inputting x = 4 and y = -5
B.
left = -5 - 5 = -10
right = -(2/3)(4 + 4) = -16/3
So it's D. Let's verify:
D.
left = -5 + 5 = 0
right = -(2/3)(4 - 4) = 0
Checks out.
