#9
3/8 x 4/11 = 3/22
#12
9/20 x 4/5 = 9/25
first the square root of 4 is 2 so we can sub that in.
now we have 2(2*2)^-2.
2 * 2 of course is 4
with 2(4)^-2, keep in mind that negative exponents just mean to "flip" the number and turn the exponents positive.
so 4^-2 is the same as 1/4^2 or 1/16.
finally 1/16 * 2 = 2/16. 2/16 simplified is 1/8.
14x - 129 (I think I’m so sorry if it’s wrong)
thats 6859, there is nothing wrong with it
Test for symmetry about the x-axis: Replace y with (-y). Simplfy the equation. If the resulting equation is equivalent to the original equation then the graph is symmetrical about the x-axis. Example: Use the test for symmetry about the x-axis to determine if the graph of y - 5x2 = 4 is symmetric about the x-axis.
Test for symmetry about the y-axis: Replace x with (-x). Simplfy the equation. If the resulting equation is equivalent to the original equation then the graph is symmetrical about the y-axis.

I didn't fully understand the question but this is the best I can do! Hope this helps! :D
