Solve the questions accurately as possible

I'll analyze the image you provided and work through the problems step by step.

### **Question 7.1 - Simplify Using the Laws of Exponents**

**7.1.1**  
\[
\frac{a^7b^4}{ab^3}
\]

**Solution**:  
Apply the laws of exponents: \(\frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n}\) and \(\frac{b^m}{b^n} = b^{m-n}\)
\[
= \frac{a^7}{a^1} \cdot \frac{b^4}{b^3} = a^{7-1} \cdot b^{4-3} = a^6b^1 = a^6b
\]

**7.1.2**  
\[
\left( \frac{m^4n^2}{p^5} \right)^2
\]

**Solution**:  
Apply the power of a quotient rule: \(\left( \frac{a}{b} \right)^n = \frac{a^n}{b^n}\)
\[
= \frac{(m^4)^2(n^2)^2}{(p^5)^2} = \frac{m^{4 \times 2} \cdot n^{2 \times 2}}{p^{5 \times 2}} = \frac{m^8 \cdot n^4}{p^{10}}
\]

### **Question 7.2 - Simplify Each of the Following**

**7.2.1**  
\[
a(1 - x) - a(1 + x)
\]

**Solution**:  
Distribute \(a\) across the terms inside the parentheses:
\[
= a(1 - x) - a(1 + x) = a - ax - a - ax = -2ax
\]

**7.2.2**  
\[
(3x^2 + x - 6) + (2x^2 - x + 5)
\]

**Solution**:  
Combine like terms:
\[
= (3x^2 + 2x^2) + (x - x) + (-6 + 5) = 5x^2 + 0x - 1 = 5x^2 - 1
\]

### **Question 7.3 - Factorize Each of the Following**

**7.3.1**  
\[
x^2 - x - 20
\]

**Solution**:  
Factor by finding two numbers that multiply to \(-20\) and add to \(-1\):
\[
x^2 - x - 20 = (x - 5)(x + 4)
\]

**7.3.2**  
\[
2a^2 + 3a - 5
\]

**Solution**:  
Factor by grouping or using the quadratic formula method. We look for factors of \(2a^2\) and \(-5\) that give us a middle term of \(3a\).

**7.4 - Solve for \(x\) and \(y\)**
\[
\begin{aligned}
2x - y &= 5 \\
x + 2y &= 3
\end{aligned}
\]

**Solution**:  
Solve the system of linear equations using substitution or elimination.

**7.5 - Solve the Following Inequality**
\[
3(x - 1) < 2(x + 4) - 7
\]

**Solution**:  
Distribute and solve for \(x\):
\[
3x - 3 < 2x + 8 - 7 \Rightarrow 3x - 3 < 2x + 1 \Rightarrow x < 4
\]

**7.6 - Solve for the Roots**
\[
x^2 + 2x - 3 = 0
\]

**Solution**:  
Factor or use the quadratic formula to find roots.

**7.7 - Given that \(k = 1\)**

For the line passing through \(A(2,5)\) and \(B\), solve the questions regarding slope, distance, midpoint, and parallelism.
