Answer:
(A) 
(b) 
(c) 
(d) 
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given expression and we have to simplify the expression using exponent property
(A) 
So 
(b) 
So 
(c) 
So 
(d) 
parallel lines, have the same exact slope, hmmm what is the slope of y = -2/3 x + 1/3 anyway? well, low and behold, the equation is already in slope-intercept form, therefore
has a slope of -2/3.
so we're really looking for a line whose slope is -2/3 and runs through 9,4.

Hello!
So let's first start out by solving the left side of the equation:
2 to the third power is 8
The right side now: -3 to the second power is -9
In total: 8- (-9)
So your answer is C) -1
I hope it helps!
