Step-by-step explanation:

the general slope intercept formula is

y = ax + b

a is the slope of the line.

b is the y-intercept (the point, where the line crosses the y-axis, meaning the y value when x=0).

we get b by using the point coordinates in the equation and solve for b :

-2 = (1/4)×0 + b

b = -2 (as expected)

the full line equation is

y = (1/4)x - 2

$y = \frac{1}{x - 3} + 7$

$x = \frac{1}{y - 3} + 7$

$x - 7 = \frac{1}{y - 3}$

$y - 3 = \frac{1}{x - 7}$

$y = \frac{1}{x - 7} + 3$

<h3> where x≠7</h3>

When an exponent of a power is an even number and the base is a negative number, the value is always:

Lorico [155]

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is A. positive.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

When an exponent or a power is an even number and the base is a negative number, the value is always positive.

Suppose we have a negative base $- 3$ and a power which is even, lets say, $6$ so what we get is a positive value.

$(-3)^6=729$

Therefore, a negative base with even power is always a positive value.
