A line has a slope of 7 and includes the points (-5, a) and ( -6, 1). What is the value of a?

a = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the equation of line using

y-y1=m(x-x1) --- m=slope = 7 and x1= -6 and y1= 1

y-1=7(x-(-6))

y-1=7x+42

y=7x+43

now let x be -5 to find y which is a

y=7(-5)+43

y=-35+43

y=8

so a = 8
