Simple...
you have: 15x+2=17
Isolate the variable (x)-->>>>
15x+2=17
-2 -2
15x=15
x=1
To check it-->>>
15(1)+2=17
17=17
Thus, your answer.
Point slope form
y-y1=m(x-x1)
slope=m
a point is (x1,y1)
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
given
(-6,4) and (2,0)
slope=(0-4)/(2-(-6))=-4/(2+6)=-4/8=-1/2
a point is (-6,4)
x1=-6
y1=4
y-4=-1/2(x+6)

If you subtract 1.1 from 5.8 you will end up with 4.7
then you subtract 10^7 from 10^8 which will give you 10^1
then you add the seven back which will give you your answer of
4.7 10^8
