Answer:

-3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Set up the formula to find the slope given two points.

$\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Step 2: Plug in the values.

$\frac{-1-(-4)}{2-7}$

Step 3: Simplify.

$\frac{-1+4}{-5}$
$\frac{3}{-5}$
$-\frac{3}{5}$

Therefore, the slope is -3/5.

What index of y make value 1/y^2

____ [38]

Answer:

(-2) is the index of y make value 1/y².

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find what index of y makes value 1/y².

Here, the numerator is 1 and the denominator is y².

We know that,

$\dfrac{1}{a^x}=a^{-x}$

So, the given expression is :

$\dfrac{1}{y^2}=y^{-2}$

Hence, (-2) is the index of y make value 1/y².
