An employment agency specializing in temporary construction help pays heavy equipment operators \( \$ 127 \) per day and general laborers \( \$ 84 \) per day. If thirty-one people were hired and the payroll was \( \$ 3550 \), how many heavy equipment operators were employed? How many laborers? The number of heavy equipment operators hired was The number of general laborers hired was

Simplify. \[ \frac{x^{2} y^{6}}{x^{3} y^{6}} \]

\( \left. \begin{array} { r l r l } { 5 x + 3 x + 2 x } & { = } & { 7 y + 5 y - 9 y } & { = } \\ { 2 a + 4 a + 6 a } & { = } & { 2 a + 3 a - 5 a } & { = } \\ { 3 x + 5 x - 6 x } & { = } & { 10 x - 5 x + 12 x } & { = } \\ { - 5 y - 8 y } & { = } & { - 11 b - 7 b } & { = } \end{array} \right. \)

Simplify the expression: \( 3 z-6+7-3 z+9 \)

Which of the following equations represents a line that passes through the points \( (-4,11) \) and \( (6,-9) \) ? \[ \begin{array}{l}\text { I. } y=-2 x+3 \\ \text { II. } y+9=-2(x-9) \\ \text { Answer } \\ \text { Neither } \\ \text { II only }\end{array} \] I only I II

Which of the following equations represents a line that passes through the points \( (8,2) \) and \( (-4,-7) \) ? I. \( y-2=\frac{3}{4}(x-8) \) II. \( 3 x-4 y=16 \) Answer Neither II only
