The negative exponents that are in the numerator pass to positive if the base is moved to the denominator, and the negative exponents that are in the denominator pass to positive if the base is moved to the numerator.
The the answer is the option B: xx^4 / y^2 y^6
Let's solve this system of equations through substitution.
We have these two equations.
-7x-2y=14
6x+6y=18
Now let divide the second equation by 6.
6x+6y=18 ----> x+y=3
Next, let us move y to the right side of the equation.
x+y=3 -------> x=3-y (x equals 3-y)
Because we found out that what x is in terms of y, we can input that in for every instance of x in this equation below.
-7x-2y=14 becomes -7(3-y)-2y=14 (Why? Because x equals 3-y!)
We have a one variable equation now and can solve for y.
-7(3-y)-2y=14
-21+7y-2y=14
5y=35
y=7
Plug in 7 for y in any equation to find x.
x+y=3
x+7=3
x=-4
answer: x=-4, y=7
