area is height times width so multiply 10.5 and 16 that gives you 168
As always, the "unit rate" can be written two ways. You have not specified which one you want.
.. (30 lb)/(1/3 ac) = 90 lb/ac
.. (1/3 ac)/(30 lb) = (1/90) ac/lb
The answer to your question is y= -2/5x + 8/5
If you would like to solve a^(-5)b^(-4) / a^(-13)b^8, you can do this using the following steps:
a^(-5)b^(-4) / a^(-13)b^8 = a^13 / a^5b^4b^8 = a^8 / b^12
The correct result would be c. a^8 / b^12.
You would use PEMDAS, which means Parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition" and then subtraction. You would solve the problem in that order
