Simplify the following:
(k^3 k^7)/3 - 5
Combine powers. (k^3 k^7)/3 = k^(7 + 3)/3:
k^(7 + 3)/3 - 5
7 + 3 = 10:
k^10/3 - 5
Put each term in k^10/3 - 5 over the common denominator 3: k^10/3 - 5 = k^10/3 - 15/3:
k^10/3 - 15/3
k^10/3 - 15/3 = (k^10 - 15)/3:
Answer: (k^10 - 15)/3

So slope intercept form is y=mx+b m is the slope and b is the y intercept. The equation of this line would be y=1/4x+2 because the rise over run (slope) is 2/8 or 1/4 and the line intercepts the y axis at 2.
5 is not a divisor of any of the dimensions of the given box, so selections A, C, D can't work.
Each of the dimensions of selection B is a divisor of a different dimension of the box, so ...
.. the correct choice is selection B) 7 × 9 × 12.
