<u>Answer:</u>
The correct answer option is A. positive.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
When an exponent or a power is an even number and the base is a negative number, the value is always positive.
Suppose we have a negative base 
and a power which is even, lets say, 
so what we get is a positive value.
Therefore, a negative base with even power is always a positive value.
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
You only need two points to find the slope.
Let's use (1,7) and (2,8).
The formula for slope is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Let's plug the values in:
(8-7)/(2-1) = 1.
So, the slope is 1.
I'm pretty sure it's 7 and 1/7
In looking at it I would guess it is asking which of the points is on the line? To answer that you would have to take each point an plug it into the equation and see if it is true.
3x - 7 = y
A(9,20)
3(9) - 7 = 20
27 - 7 = 20
20 = 20 True - this point is on the line
B(5,0)
3(5) - 7 = 0
15 - 7 = 0
8 = 0 False - this point is not on the line
C(3,2)
3(3) - 7 = 2
9 - 7 = 2
2 = 2 True - this point is on the line
I hope this helps
