Answer:
a = 3, b = 12, c = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
The applicable rules of exponents are ...
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
(a^b)/(a^c) = a^(b-c)
(a^b)^c = a^(bc)
___

<em>Additional comment</em>
I find it easy to remember the rules of exponents by remembering that <em>an exponent signifies repeated multiplication</em>. It tells you how many times the base is a factor in the product.

Multiplication increases the number of times the base is a factor.

Similarly, division cancels factors from numerator and denominator, so decreases the number of times the base is a factor.

Answer:
its the second one
Step-by-step explanation:
hope it helps
First you need to multiply by a factor that will givr you the same value in one of the x or y value.
(6x-12y=24)1
+(-x-6y=4)-2
6x-12y=24
=2x+12y=-8
8x=16÷8
x=2
now that you have x, substitute x by 2 in one of the eqauations
-2-6y=4
+2. +2
=-6y=6
÷-6. ÷-6
y=-1
