a is equivalent to 18.

2(42 - a) = 48
2(42) + 2(-a) = 48     *distributive property of multiplication
84 - 2a = 48
-2a = 48 - 84
-2a = -36
-2a/-2 = -36/-2
a = 18

to check:
2(42-a)   = 48
2(42-18) = 48
2(24)      = 48
48          = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Use slope formula of y2-y1/x2-x1. So here it doesn’t matter which is which so I did (6,5) x1 and y1 and (0,0) x2 and y2

So plugging it in it would be 0-5/0-6 = -5/-6 which simplifies to 5/6
