Answer:

s=6

Step-by-step explanation:

slope(m) = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

or, -3 = (-6+9)/(5-s)

or, -3(5-s) = 3

or, -15+3s = 3

or, 3s = 18

so, s = 6

<h3>Linear equation</h3>

A linear equation is in the form:

y = mx + b

where y, x are variables, m is the slope of the line and m is the y intercept.

Let y represent the total cost of hiring for x hours. Hence:

Using the points (0, 125) and (15, 950)

$Slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{950-125}{15-0} =55$

The rate of change is $55 per hour. The means that the hourly rate of the designer is $55 per hour

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{ 9 }$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\huge \frac{ {9}^{ \frac{1}{2}b } }{ {3}^{a} } \\ \\ = \huge \frac{ {( {3}^{2} )}^{ \frac{1}{2}b } }{ {3}^{a} } \\ \\ = \huge \frac{ { {3}}^{2 \times \frac{1}{2}b } }{ {3}^{a} } \\ \\ \huge = \frac{ {3}^{b} }{ {3}^{a} } \\ \\ \huge = \frac{1}{ {3}^{a - b} } \\ \\ \huge= \frac{1}{ {3}^{2} } \\ ( \because \: a - b = 2)\\ \\ \huge = \frac{1}{ 9 }$
