This is simple:
If k=3/5, then you substitute 3/5 for k
Example:
5(3/5)(-7)=?
Answer: -175/3 or -58.33 repeating
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Question 1</u>
<u>Part (a)</u> :
⇒ 6 × 6 × 6 × 6 × 6 × 6 × 6 = 6ˣ
⇒ 6⁷ = 6ˣ
⇒ x = 7
<u>Part (b)</u> :
⇒ y² = 169
⇒ √y² = √169
⇒ y = ± 13
⇒ y = 13, y = -13
<u>Question 2</u>
<u>Part (a)</u> :
⇒ (√5)² × (√3)²
⇒ 5 × 3
⇒ 15
<u>Part (b)</u> :
⇒ (∛9)³ × (√30)²
⇒ 9 × 30
⇒ 270
The answer is 13 because you would plug in 3(3) which is 9 then you multiply (9)(2) which is 18 they you subtract 18-5 which equals 13
