The Y-intercept is showing how many candy bars were sold in 2000 since x is every year after 2000 (hope that makes sense)
Both of those equations are solved for y. So if the first one is equal to y and the second one is equal to y, then the transitive property says that the first one is equal to the second one. We set them equal to each other and solve for x. 4x-5=-3 and 4x = 2. That means that x = 1/2. We were already told that y = -3, so the coordinates for the solution to that system are (1/2, -3), B from above.
(4^9)5 X 4^0
4^9 is 262,144 x 5 = 1,310,720
1,310,720 x 1 = 1,310,720
When two fractions have the same denominator, you can compare which fraction is greater by just comparing the numerators.
For example, if you have 2/5 and 3/5, the denominators are the same. So you can just look at the numerators. 3 is greater than 5, so 3/5 is greater than 2/5.
The reasoning to this is that the two numbers are divided by the same number (5), so you can compare the original numbers (numerators).
