Answer: 2x-3=15
2(9)-3=15
18-3=15
5^-7 * 5^12
Because the base is the same, add the exponents.
5^ (-7+12)= 5^5
Final answer: 5^5, or 3125
Answer:
(2,16) , (1, 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
(-1,-7), x = -1 and y = -7
plug in
y = 8x
-7 = 8 * -1
-7 = -8, false
(2,16), x=2 and y = 16
plug in
y= 8x
16 = 8 * 2
16 = 16, so it is a solution
(1,8), x = 1 and y = 8
plug in
y = 8x
8 = 8 * 1
8 =8 , so it is a solution
(-2,-6), x = -2, y = -6
plug in
y = 8x
-6 = -2 * 8
-6 = -16, false
