Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the inequality:
We need to match each step with the reasons.
The given steps are:
1.
−38−3(x+5)>6x−17
So, Reason for step 1: Given
2.
−38−3x−15>6x−17
So, Reason for step 2: Distributive Property
3.
−3x−53>6x−17
So, Reason for step 3: Combine Like terms
4.
−9x−53>−17
So, Reason for step 4: Subtraction Property of Order
5.
−9x>36
So, Reason for step 5: Addition property of order
6.
x<−4
So, Reason for step 6: Division property of order

Answer: Choice B
======================================================
Explanation:
The two rules we use are
When applying the first rule to the expression your teacher gave you, we can say that:
Then applying the second rule lets us say
Therefore,
-------------
In short, we just multiplied each exponent inside by the outer exponent 1/2.
So that explains why the exponents go from {1/4,16} to {1/8,8} for x and y in that exact order.
