Answer:
The first option x = y
Step-by-step explanation:
If 7x = 7y, then...
7x = 7y
7x / 7 = 7y / 7
x = y
That technique for solving equations is: Whatever you do to one side of the equation, you have to do to the other side to preserve the equality The technique for solving inequalities is: Whatever you do to one side of the inequality, you have to do to the other side to preserve the inequality. the techniques are the same. The difference between solving equations and solving inequalities is: If you multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number, then the inequality reverses. !!!!!
Given equation is 
.
Now we need to find about what are the key aspects of the graph of , where b is a real number.
We know that square of any number is always positive.
then 
must be a positive number.
So that means for any real number b, as the value of b increases then graph of f(x) shifts downward by units as compared to the graph of parent function
