<u>Given equations:</u>
<u>Add together:</u>
- -8x + 8y + 3x - 8y = 8 - 18
- - 5x = - 10
Correct option is D
Answer:
9) 4
10) p¹⁵/q⁹
Step-by-step explanation:
9)
As per the law of indices, (xᵃ)ᵇ=xᵃᵇ.
So divide 8 by 2 to get 4
10)
p(p⁻⁷q³)⁻²q⁻³
p(p¹⁴q⁻⁶)q⁻³ <em>(because (xᵃ)ᵇ=xᵃᵇ)</em>
pq⁻³(p¹⁴q⁻⁶)
p¹⁵q⁻⁹
p¹⁵/q⁹ <em>(because x⁻ᵃ =1 /xᵃ)</em>
