Answer:
it's a very easy one and it's answer is 1728
<span>2d – e = 7 </span>
<span>d + e = 5 </span>
<span>3d=12 </span>
<span>d=4 </span>
The difference is whether the exponent attaches to just the 2 or to the negative sign as well
-2^4 = - (2x2x2x2) = -16
(-2^4) = -2 x -2 x -2 x -2 = +16

Answer: g(x) = 5x+9, second choice</h3>
Explanation:
When we reflect over the vertical y axis, every negative x value becomes positive and vice versa. So we effectively replace x with -x like so
f(x) = -5x+9
f(-x) = -5(-x)+9 ... replace every x with -x
f(-x) = 5x+9
g(x) = 5x+9
A point like (1,4) on f(x) will reflect over to (-1,4) on g(x). If we apply this to every point on f(x), then all of f(x) will reflect to g(x).
