Answer:
When dividing two values with the same base, we simply subtract the first exponent by the second and keep the original base. 3^3-6=3^-3. This equals out to be 1/27.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2y = -x +9
3x - 6y = -15
The solution is the value of x and y that will make the two equations true in the same time.
3x-6y = -15; divide both sides by 3
x-2y = -5; substitute 2y for -x+9 because the first equation tell us they are equal
x-(-x+9) = -5; open parenthesis
x+x-9 = -5 ; add 9 to both sides and combine like terms
2x = -5 +9; 2x = 4; divide both sides by 2
x= 2
Substitute x for 2
2y = -x+9 ; 2y = -2 +9 ; 2y = 7; y = 7/2 = 3.5
Solution is (2, 3.5)
Let's use the variable x to represent the length of the first and second pieces.
If the third piece has twice the length of the first and second, its length is 2x.
If the fourth piece has half the length of the first and second, its length is 0.5*x.
Adding all four pieces and equating to 54 inches, we have:

So the length of each piece is:
12 inches, 12 inches, 24 inches and 6 inches.
Factor it out first so:
y=(x+13)(x-2)
Then you know that x= -13 and 2 to make the equation 0
Hope this helps!
