y^x:y^x = 1 because a:a=1 for every a
but y^x:y^x=y^(x-x)=y^0
Ex: 2^3:2^2=2^(3-2)=2
8:4=2
⇒ y^0=1

Currently the equation 6x - 2y = 18 is in standard form. Convert the standard form equation into a slope-intercept form and we can find the slope easily.
Solve for y.
6x - 2y = 18
-2y = 18 - 6x <-- Subtract 6x from each side. This is to isolate the 2y term
2y / -2 =

<-- Divide each side by 2. This it to
get rid of the 2 coefficient.
y = -9 + 3x
Rearrange the right-hand side a bit.
y = -9 + 3x becomes y = 3x - 9
Now it is in slope-intercept form.
The slope is the coefficient of the x variable.
So, 3 is the slope.

Answer: B. x = 6</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
Since the vertical lines are parallel, this means the alternate exterior angles shown are congruent.
Set them equal to each other and solve for x.
15(x+2) = 120
15x+30 = 120
15x = 120-30
15x = 90
x = 90/15
x = 6
Or we could have the steps like this
15(x+2) = 120
x+2 = 120/15
x+2 = 8
x = 8-2
x = 6
I’m pretty sure I did my math right, hope this helps.
