Answer:

y = 3x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line passing through the two points

P = (x1. y1) and Q = (x2, y2) is given by

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

We have that x1= -6, y1= -19, x2= 2, y2= 5

m=3

Now, the y-intercept is b=y1 - mx1 (or b= y2 - mx2, the result is the same).

b= -19-(3)(-6)

b= -1

y = 3x - 1

5/2
70 is the constant number that doesn’t change, but anytime you increase t you are raising it above 5/2. So every time you grow 5/2.

Simplify the expression.

spayn [35]

Answer:

C. $\huge\frac{1}{3x {y}^{2} {z}^{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(9 {x}^{2} {y}^{4} {z}^{8} )^{ - \frac{1}{2} } \\ \\ = ( {3}^{2} {x}^{2} {y}^{4} {z}^{8} )^{ - \frac{1}{2} } \\ \\ = \frac{1}{( {3}^{2} {x}^{2} {y}^{4} {z}^{8} )^{ \frac{1}{2} }} \\ \\ = \frac{1}{(3x {y}^{2} {z}^{4})^{2 \times \frac{1}{2} } } \\ \\ = \frac{1}{3x {y}^{2} {z}^{4}} \\ \\ \red{ \bold{ \therefore \: (9 {x}^{2} {y}^{4} {z}^{8} )^{ - \frac{1}{2} } = \frac{1}{3x {y}^{2} {z}^{4}} }}\\$
