Answer:

0.5 A

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

I believe the question is incomplete. However, as per the information provided:

The simplest way to calculate the Current (unit is Amperage), is understanding the relationship between the three: Power, Voltage and Current.

<em>(Quick Tip: </em><em>W=AV</em><em>; where W -> Watts (Power), A -> Ampere (Current), V -> Volts (Voltage))</em>

Using the formula we calculate the Ampere:

W = A x V

60 = A x 120

60/120 = A (We divide the equation be 120)

0.5 = A  (Simply reduce the fraction 60/120  = 1/2 = 0.5)

Answer:

2nd option

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify first what is in the parenthesis before distributing the exponent outside would help.

Remember that negative exponents simply means that their on the wrong side of the fraction. So if you find a variable with a negative exponent as a numerator, you bring them down and when it is found as a denominator, you bring them up.

Also when you distribute your exponents, you always multiply it to each exponent inside the parenthesis.

Look at the attached picture for the solution

Choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (2, -5) with a slope of -3.
mash [69]
The point-slope form: y-y_0=m(x-x_0)

m=-3;\ (2;-5)\to x_0=2;\ y_0=-5

subtitute

y-(-5)=-3(x-2)\\\\y+5=-3x+6\ \ \ \ \ |subtract\ 5\ from\ both\ sides\\\\\boxed{y=-3x+1}
