Answer:

answers C and D are both correct. (I consider D to be "simpler.")

Step-by-step explanation:

By the rules of exponents ...

(a^b)^c = a^(b·c)

Here, we have a=-3, b=2. c=3, so ...

((-3)^2)^3 = (-3)^(2·3) = (-3)^6

___

Consider further that ...

-3 = (-1)(3)

and another rule of exponents tells you ...

(a·b)^c = (a^c)·(b^c)

so our previous simplified result can also be written as ...

(-3)^6 = ((-1)·(3))^6 = (-1)^6·(3)^6 = 1·(3)^6 = (3)^6

_____

I find it hard to tell just how "simplified" your answer key may want the answer to be. Of course, the simplest possible form is 729.

What is the equation of the line? Plsss helppp

Goshia [24]

Answer:

y = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope: 0

y-intercept: (0,−7)

Since the line doesn't change up, down, right, or left, and it stays on the y-axis, that's how u get y = . The straight line runs along -7 . That's how u get -7 . so when u put it all together u get: y = -7 .

Hope that helps. Tried to explain the best I could :)
