Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the property that
a
m
a
n
=
a
m
−
n
, we have
3
4
2
2
=
3
4
−
2
=
3
2
=
9
Note that if we evaluated the numerator and denominator first, we would arrive at the same result:
3
4
3
2
=
81
9
=
9
Point-slope:
y-y1= m(x-x1)
Plug in what you know.
y1= 1 and x1= -8
y-1= 2/5(x-(-8)
y-1= 2/5(x+8)
Distribute.
y-1=.4x+ 3.2 <- that is the final answer
I hope this helps!
