ANSWER

The exponent of x is -45 and the exponent of y is 0.

EXPLANATION

We want to simplify:

\frac{ {x}^{8} { y}^{ - 26}  }{ {x}^{14} {y}^{ - 5} \times  {x}^{39}  {y}^{ - 21} }

Recall and use

{a}^{m}  \times  {a}^{n}  =  {a}^{m + n}

=  \frac{ {x}^{8} { y}^{ - 26}  }{ {x}^{14 + 39} {y}^{ - 5 +  - 21} }

=  \frac{ {x}^{8} { y}^{ - 26}  }{ {x}^{53} {y}^{  - 26} }

Also recall and apply,

\frac{ {a}^{m} }{ {a}^{n} }  =  {a}^{m - n}

={x}^{8 - 53} { y}^{ - 26 -  - 26}

={x}^{ - 45} { y}^{ 0}

The exponent of x is -45 and the exponent of y is 0.

NikAS [45]

Answer:

x = -6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

5 – 6x = 8x + 17

-5                 - 5           Subtract 5 from both sides

-6x = 8x + 12

-8x   - 8x                     Subtract 8x from both sides

-14x = 12                      Divide both sides by -14

x = -12/14                     Simplify

x = -6/7
