Multiply or divide as indicated p^a*p^-3*p^2

p^(a-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The simplified expression can be seen in the picture attached below

As the factors have the same base, we just need to add or substract the exponents

p^(a-3+2) = p^(a-1)

a) y = -3x +2

b) y = 1/2x -6

these 2 can be combined into one equation.

-3x +2 = .5x -6

8 = 3.5x

x = 8 / 3.5 = 2.2857142857

y = -3 * (8 / 3.5) +2

y = (-24 / 3.5) + 2

y = -4.8571428571
