Negative exponents work like this:
So, in order to evaluate a negative exponent, you simply have to invert the base, and then raise to the positive equivalent of the exponent.
As an example, here are the first three exercises:
You can work out the rest applying this logic.
Answer:
(a) The dependant veriable is the $120 per hour and the independant veriable is the $75 consultaion fee.
(b) The table of vaules for this would look like this, 
, where C = cost and T = time.
(c) The relationship between C and T is linear, beacause with the more hours you take the cost increases.
(d) Yes, it is sensible because the points would be in line due to the steady increase of the hourly rate.
(e) For every hour spent the cost increases 120 dollars.
(f) The fixed cost is 75 dollars for consultation and the veriable cost is 120 per hour.

Step-by-step explanation: 5 23 8 03
the lenght of the longer leg of a right triangle is 9 ft longer than the lenght of the shorter leg x. The hypotenuse is 9 ft shorter than twice the lenght of the shorter leg.
shorter leg = x
longer leg = x + 9
hypotenuse = 2x - 9
Pythagorean theorem = a² + b² = c²
shorter-leg² + longer-leg² = hypotenuse²
x² + (x+9)² = (2x - 9)² solve for x
x² + (x+9) (x+9) = (2x - 9)(2x - 9)
x² + (x²+18x+81) = (4x² - 36x + 81)
(2x²+18x+81) = (4x² - 36x + 81)
0 = 2x² -54x
0 = x(2x - 54)
0 = x and 0 = 2x -54
54 = 2x
27 = x
shorter leg = 27
longer leg = 36
hypotenuse = 45
divided all the values by 9 and you get a 3, 4, 5 right triangle, so the answer checks correct
Answer:
9
