Answer:
6^-4 ÷ 3^-4
6^-4/3^-4
Since their powers are negative
Flip them both so the negative index is lost.
It now becomes
3^4/6^4
81/1296
=1/16
18/22 = 2*9/2*11 = 9/11
Therefore, your answer is 18
Y-5=3-9 (y+2)
Solve for y
Distribute the 9 to (y+2)
Y-5=3-9y-18
Y-5=-15-9y
+9y to both sides
10y-5=-15
+5 to both sides
10y=-10
÷10 both sides
Y= -1
2 (x-7)-10=12-4x
Solve for X
Distribute 2 to (x-7)
2x-14-10=12-4x
2x-24=12-4x
+4x to both sides
6x-24=12
+24 to both sides
6x=36
÷6 to both sides
X=6
