Here you go. Do you think that you could help me with my question

5a – 10b = 45 
5a – 10(3) = 45 
5a – 30 = 45 
+30 +30 
5a = 75/5 
<span>a = 15</span>

So Since we know what b equals. We can just plug it into the equation 
b = 3 
5a -10(3) = 45 

First step is to solve -10(3)  that means we multiply these two numbers. 
-10 x 3 = -30 
Now plug that in for what it was in the equation. 

5a - 30 = 45 

Now the next step is to add 30 to both sides to cancel out -30

5a - 30 = 45 
     +30 = +30
*************** Now the 30's on the left side disappear and we solve on the right side. 
45 + 30 = 75 

Now set up your equation once again. 

5a = 75 

Now we divide both sides by 5 to isolate (or get a to be alone) 
5a = 75 
÷5 = ÷5 
********* the 5's on the left side disappear and we solve on the right side. 

75 ÷ 5 = 15 

So here's what we have left. 
a = 15 

Good Luck! :)

The slope of (17,2) and (18,-17)
Ahat [919]

<u>m= -19/1</u>

We need to use the slope equation

\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1} }

We are working with the points,  

 (17,    2)         and      (18,     -17)

  x1    y1                       x2       y2

\frac{-17-2}{18-17}

<u>m= -19/1</u>

X: 1, 2

J: 1, 5

Y: -3, 5

Start with the x-axis which is the horizontal line, and then the y-axis which is the vertical line, then you just find the dot and the points!
