The answer is 3. Multiply first so -2^3 which is -6. Then you combine 9 and -6 to get 3.
Answer:
a. y = x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = a.x + b
from the graph: x = 0, y = -2 --> b = -2
x = 2, y = 0 --> 0 = a.2 -2 --> a = 1
The expression would be

after the negative exponents have been removed.
A negative exponent basically tells us to "flip" the side of the fraction it's on. This means that y⁻⁶ on the numerator would go to the denominator, and that x⁻⁴ on the denominator would go to the numerator. This gives us:
Answer:
48 and 32 6 hours clearing tables and 2 hours tutoring
Step-by-step explanation:
we can rewrite this as a fraction. we will use 1/10s because 80 can be divided by 8 which is in the problem. we then have to find out what two numbers add up to 8 but one is 3 times the other. 6 and 2 fit into this problem so we plug it into the equation and we write it as this 6x+4x=80 where x is 8. we get 48 and 32.
