see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

using the rule of exponents

$a^{-m}$ = $\frac{1}{a^{m} }$ , then

$6^{-2}$ = $\frac{1}{6^{2} }$ = $\frac{1}{36}$

6² × $6^{-2}$

= 36 × $\frac{1}{36}$

Find the x and y intercepts.

Roman55 [17]

-3/4x + 5/6 y = 15

Multiply through by 6

-9/2x + 5y = 90

Add 9/2x to both sides

5y = 90 + 9/2x

Divide both sides by 5

y = 18 + 9/10x

y = 9/10x + 18
Comparing with the general equation of a straight line y = mx + c

Gradient (m) = 9/10 or 0.9
and the y - intercept (c) = 18
