Answer:

y = 3x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

General equation of a line in the slope intercept form is

y = mx + b ,

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept ( where intercepts the y-axis)

y = 3x + b ,

because is given slope is m = 3

For point (x = -2, y = -8) we have

-8 = 3 (-2) + b

-8 = -6 + b

-8 + 6 = b

-2 = b

The equation of the line that passes through the point (-2,-8) and has a slope of 3 is

y = 3x -2

Hello!

$\large\boxed{x^{4}}$

Recall that:

$\sqrt[z]{x^{y} }$ is equal to $x^{\frac{y}{z} }$ . Therefore:

$\sqrt[3]{x^{2} } = x^{\frac{2}{3} }$

There is also an exponent of '6' outside. According to exponential properties, when an exponent is within an exponent, you multiply them together. Therefore:

$(x^{\frac{2}{3} })^{6} = x^{\frac{2}{3}* 6 } = x^{\frac{12}{3} } = x^{4}$
