Question

-4[(-3)(-1 )- (-1)^6(-4)] /(4-10)^2

Answer 1

Hi @alyygirl. Hope you have been well. Let's work through this one? Or are you looking for just an answer...?

Answer 2

lets work through

Answer 3

-4 [(-3)(-1) - -1^6(-4)] / (4-10)^2

Let's split it up into manageable sections so we can do it step by step.

I didn't change anything, just added a bunch of spaces to separate the parts, can you see that so far?

Answer 4

yep

Answer 5

@Cosmichaotic

Answer 6

Ok so we can simplify the (-3)(-1) to be 3 right?

-4 [ 3 - -1^6(-4)] / (4-10)^2

Answer 7

-4 [(-3)(-1) - -1^6(-4)] / (4-10)^2
(3)

Answer 8

yep

Answer 9

-4 [ 3 - -1^6(-4)] / (4-10)^2
-1^6
1(-4)
-4

-4 [ 3 - -4 / (4-10)^2

Answer 10

Simplifying the -1^6(-4) in the last part I showed.

Answer 11

which is -4

Answer 12

-4 [3 - (-4)] / (4-10)^2
- * -
+
3 + 4
7
-4 [ 7 ] / (4-10)^2


I really hope this is making sense. Do you have any questions about how I came to

-4(7)/(4-10)^2 so far?

Answer 13

no im good

Answer 14

That's awesome!! I felt like I was doing a horrid job haha

Answer 15

nope but the way its written is confusing lol

Answer 16

(4-10)^2 = -6^2 = 36

-4(7)/36
-28/36
-14/18
-7/9

Our answer should be -7/9 but I'm pretty sure I made a mistake somewhere...

Answer 17

ok so it is -7/9 or your not sure?

Answer 18

I am not 100% sure. More like 25%. Let me do it on paper real quick ok? =0P

Answer 19

ok lol

Answer 20

Yep that's right!

Answer 21

I'm good.

Answer 22

100% sure.

Answer 24

ok

Answer 25

My pleasure.

Answer 26

another question?

Answer 27

actually check my work

Answer 28

Sure.

Answer 29

Evaluate the following expression when a = -3, b = 1, c = 3:

-3bc over
bc^2 - c

Answer 30

-39/166?

Answer 31

\[-3bc/bc ^{2} - c\]

Right?

Answer 32

yep

Answer 33

\[-3(1)(3)/(1)(3^{2}) - 3\]

Where is the a in this equation lol?

Answer 34

expression, not equation

Answer 35

its the -3 i guess

Answer 36

idk weird

Answer 37

9/6 or 3/2 is the reduced form of that expression.

Answer 38

-9/6 or -3/2 sorry.

Answer 39

ok
