<h3><u><em>
Answer:</em></u></h3>
-15 > -21
<h3><u><em>step by step:</em></u></h3>
We know that 15 < 21 then -15 > -21
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The equation of a exponential function is of the form

where
a is the initial value or y-intercept
b is the base of the exponential function
In this problem we have
----> the y-intercept is given
substitute

we have the other ordered pair (1,10)
substitute the value of x and the value of y and solve for b


substitute

see the attached figure to better understand the problem
Answer:
1. 43/36
2. 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 7/9 + 5/12
= LCM of 9 and 12 is 36
= 28/36 + 15/12
= (28 + 15) / 36
= 43/36
2. 21/24 - 3/8
= LCM of 24 and 8 is 24
= 21/24 - 9/24
= (21 - 9) / 24
= 12/24
= 1/2
X-y=3=>x=3+y
X+2y=-6
=========
3+y+2y=-6
3+3y=-6
3y=-6-3
3y=-9
y=-3
X+2y=-6
X+2(-3)=-6
X-6=-6
X=0
