What is the quotient of 15p^-4 q^-6/-20p^-12 q^-3 in simplifed form?

In this question, you have two variable p and q. To simplify it, you need to divide each variable which will result in subtracting the power/exponent. Since all the exponent is a minus, it will be easier to switch the position first. The calculation should be: 

15 * p^-4 * q^-6  / -20 * p^-12 * q^-3=
15 * p^12 * q^3 / -20 * p^4 * q^6=
15 /-20 * p^(12-4) * q^(3-6)=
-3 /4 * p^8 * q *-3=
-3 * p^8/ q^3

Ifound this on google “that means that the graph of a function with direct variation has these features: it is a straight line: because the slope is the ratio y/x = k. it passes through the origin (0,0): because y = kx = k (0) = 0.” i hope this you for what your looking for
