<u>Given</u>:
The given expression is 
We need to determine the equivalent expression.
<u>Equivalent expression:</u>
Let us determine the equivalent expression.
The equivalent expression can be determined by simplifying the given expression.
Hence, let us apply the exponent rule to simplify the given expression.
Thus, applying the exponent rule, 
, we get;
Rewriting the expression, we get;
Simplifying, we get;
Thus, the equivalent expression is
Hence, Option C is the correct answer.
To find the perpendicular slope, we simply flip the fraction (aka reciprocal) and flip the sign (go from positive to negative, or vice versa)
So for problem 1a) we flip the fraction to go from 4/3 to 3/4. Then we flip the sign to go from +3/4 to -3/4. The final answer to problem 1a) is -3/4
The answer to problem 1b) is 7/3 following the same basic steps: -3/7 ---> -7/3 ---> 7/3
The answer to problem 1c) is -1/4. You can think of 4 as 4/1 which flips to 1/4 and it becomes -1/4
I'll let you try out the rest 1d and 1e. Tell me what you get so I can check your answers.
To find out how much he makes per week, take the amount and divide it by the week.
1520/4=380.
He makes 380 per week.
