The rules are


Let me show you why with a couple of examples: suppose we want to multiply

Since powers are just repeated multiplications, we have

Similarly, we have

Answer:
y=-1/2x+4 Is your answer
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
3=2x+4
-1=2x
x=-1/2
You already know y is 4 so y=-1/2x+4
First you have to find a common denominator between all the fractions which would be 12 for the first week it would be reduced to 6 3/12 and the second 4 8/12 both added together would be 10 and 11/12 so the equation would be 15 4/12 - 10 11/12 which would be 4 5/12.
