Meaning you don't have to solve the equation in a certain order just left to right in order to find the answer unlike division and subtraction

5/g=n because the denominator is always the total amount and g is the total amount of granola bars in the box. And the 5 comes from the amount of kids that received the bars and the n is on the outside because your looking for that amount. I’m sorry if this doesn’t make sense, i tried my best to explain.

Which is the value of this expression when p=-2 and q=-1?

saul85 [17]

Answer:

D. 4

Step-by-step explanation:

$[(p^2) (q^{-3}) ]^{-2}.[(p)^{-3}(q)^5] ^{-2}\\\\=[(p^2) (q^{-3}) \times(p)^{-3}(q)^5 ]^{-2}\\\\=[(p^{2}) \times(p)^{-3} \times (q^{-3}) \times(q)^5 ]^{-2}\\\\=[(p^{2-3}) \times (q^{5-3}) ]^{-2}\\\\=[(p^{-1}) \times (q^{2}) ]^{-2}\\\\=(p^{-1\times (-2)}) \times (q^{2\times (-2) }) \\\\=p^{2}\times q^{-4} \\\\= \frac{p^2}{q^4}\\\\= \frac{(-2)^2}{(-1)^4}\\\\= \frac{4}{1}\\\\= 4$
