First u have to move the -5/2 to the other side. Sou add 5/2 to -5/2, which cancels out. Then ur stuck with x=9+5/2. Next u solve. 9+2.5=11.5. so ur answer is 11.5

Answer:

d, e

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

a^-b = 1/a^b

In this case, it means the product is ...

(6^1)(6^0)(6^-3) = 6^(1+0-3) = 6^-2 = 1/6^2 = 1/36

The 6 without an exponent is equivalent to 6^1, an exponent of 1.

The sum of the exponents is -2.

Add the exponents to simplify the expression.

The value of the expression is 1/36.

An equivalent is any expression that results in 6^-2. One such is (6^5)(6^-7).

Only the last two choices, d and e, apply.

What is the standard form equation of the line shown below? Graph of a line going through negative 2, 3 and 1, negative 3

V125BC [204]

Answer:

3. 2x + y = −1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of the line, we write it first in the slope-intercept form:

$y=mx+q$

where

m is the slope

q is the y-intercept

From the graph, we see that the line crosses the y-axis at y = -1, so the y-intercept is -1:

$q=-1$

Now we have to find the slope, by calculating the rate of change of the line through 2 points:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Taking the two points at (-2,3) and (1,-3), we find:

$m=\frac{-3-3}{1-(-2)}=\frac{-6}{3}=-2$

So the equation of the line is

$y=-2x-1$

Now we have to re-arrange it in the standard form, so in the form

$ax+bx=c$

where a, b and c are integer numbers.

To do that, we simply add +2x on both sides of the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form, and we get:

$y+2x=-1$

So, option 3).
