Answer:
a) 1/27
b) 16
c) 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 
One of the properties of the exponents tells us that when we have a negative exponent we can express it in terms of its positive exponent by turning it into the denominator (and changing its sign), so we would have:

And now, solving for x = 9 we have:

b) 
This is already a positive rational exponent so we are just going to substitute the value of y = 8 into the expression

c) 
Using the same property we used in a) we have:

And now, solving for z = 16 we have:

A cross section is the shape we get when cutting straight through an object. The cross section of this object is a triangle. It is like a view into the inside of something made by cutting through it.

Answer:
The value of the 2nd expression is 14, so the expressions are equivalent.
Step-by-step explanation:
6 + 2x - 2
6 + 2(5) - 2
6 + (10) - 2
16 - 2
