9^2/9^7
when dividing powers, we subtract the exponents
9^(2-7)
9^ (-5)
a negative exponent flips from the numerator to the denominator
1/ 9^5
Choice D
Answer! :
y = -2x + 5
Step by Step! :
slope intercept form:
y = mx + b
m being slope, b being the y intercept.
To find the slope, use this equation:
y^2 - y^1 / x^2 - x^1
Plug in your points.
(-1) - (7) / (3) - (-1)
-8 / 4
-2 is your slope! (y = -2x + b)
To solve for b, plug in any one of your points and solve for b. Let's use (3, -1)
-1 = -2(3) + b
-1 = -6 + b
5 = b
Your new equation is...
y = -2x + 5
This would be the identity property of addition telling us that any number added to zero is that number (i.e. 6 added to zero is still 6)
