Answer: q³⁰
Explanation:
First just solve the first part using the exponent rules
p²q⁵ becomes 1/p-⁸q-²⁰ then we flip the fraction so the exponents become positive. Now we have p⁸q²⁰.
Before multiplying the other equation, we must simplify. p-⁴q⁵ becomes 1/p⁴q-⁵ and since it's the exponents being raised to a power we simply multiply the inner exponents times the outer exponent which yields 1/p⁸q-¹⁰. We must make q-¹⁰ positive so we will then bring it to the numerator of the fraction which gives us: q¹⁰/p⁸.
Multiply q¹⁰/p⁸ * p⁸q²⁰/1 = p⁸q³⁰/p⁸ divide the p exponents by each other which yields 0 since when u divide exponents you just subtract them so 8 - 8 = 0. Your answer is now q³⁰/1 or just q³⁰
So puppies will be 5x and Kittens 4 x so they combined will be 5x+4x=27
9x=27
X=3
Always- their slopes are always opposite reciprocals of each other
