Take the as together and take the bs together.
5a + 3b - 6a - b.
5a - 6a + 3b - b. Then simplify.
-a + 2b.
That's it.
Hey!~
The answer is 25/100.
0/100 (0) and 50/100 (1/2) : The middle is 1/4.
Hope this helps and have a great day!

It would be D, because to be a function, a set of ordered pairs cannot have the same x value. The y value can be the same though.
(5,6), (8,6), (9,6)
As you can see, all of the x values are different, so it is a function.
change in y/change in x
y2-y1/x2-x1
-1--5/0-2
-1+5/-2
4/-2
-2
slope is -2
now take one ordered pair and plug it into the equation (for this example i will use the SECOND ordered pair
y = -2x +b
-1 = -2(0)+b
-1 = b
the equation is
<h2>
y = -2x - 1</h2>
