Answer:

C. -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the y intercept by plugging in the slope and a given point into the equation y = mx + b. Then, solve for b:

y = mx + b

-7 = -3(2) + b

-7 = -6 + b

-1 = b

So, the y intercept is -1.

The correct answer is C. -1

Answer: 1

Work: After plugging in the 6 in the X, the new equation is -2(6) + 13. After doing the multiplication of -2 and 6, you get -12. Add -12 + 13, and the answer (Or y) equals 1.

Answer:

-5 when ...

Step-by-step explanation:

The rules of exponents can help you simplify the given product.

<h3>Rules</h3>

(a/b)^c = (a^c)/(b^c)

(ab)^c = (a^c)(b^c)

(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

(a^b)/(a^c) = a^(b-c)

<h3>Application</h3>

$\left(\dfrac{x}{y}\right)^2(-x^2y)^3=\\\\\dfrac{x^2(-1)^3(x^2)^3y^3}{y^2}=-x^{2+2\cdot3}y^{3-2}=-x^8y$

This expression does not match any of those offered.
