((-m)^-3)*n

first we substitute in both "m" and "n" with their respective values.

((-(2)^-3))*(-24)

then use pemdas (order of operations) to solve

-(2^-3)*-24

-(1/(2^3)*-24

-(1/8)*-24

(1/8)*24

24/8=3

3 is the answer

You are planning to put a new digital flat t.v on a wall that is 12ft long and 9ft high. the digital t.v has a diagonal of 72 in

Pie

Area of wall = 9 * 12 = 108 ft^2
Width of TV = x
Lenght = 2x
Diagonal of TV = 72 " = 6 ft

x^2+(2x)^2=6^2
x^2+4x^2=36
5x^2=35
x^2=36/5
x=sqrt(36/5)
Width = 2.68 ft.
Length = 2.68 * 5.36 = 14.36 ft^2
Area of wall - area of tv = 108 - 14.36 = 93.64 ft
