9^-2 = 1/81 or 0.0123
When there is a negative in front of the exponent it makes a fraction. It is usually just 1/the number it equals if it were positive.

First, make it into slope intercept form. Subtract x form both sides
x (-x) - y = 5 (-x)
-y = -x + 5
Isolate the y. Divide -1 from both sides
(-y)/-1 = (-x + 5)/-1
y = x - 5
The slope in the form: y = mx + b, is m, which is next to the x
In this case, the m is 1
You're slope is 1

Rewriting the equation of the given line in slope-intercept form,
From this, we know the slope of the given line is -1/4.
Since parallel lines have the same slope, we know the line whose equation we want to find has a slope of -1/4.
Substituting into point-slope form,
