Follow the definition of exponents and the rules of multiplying positive and negative numbers.

$(-2)^4 = (-2)(-2)(-2)(-2) = 4(-2)(-2) = -8(-2) = 16$

$-2^4 = -(2^4) = -[2(2)(2)(2)] = -[4(2)(2)] = -[8(2)] = -[16] = -16$

Answer: The third choice, 16 and -16

Find the volume of each figure. Simplify your answers.

Lerok [7]

Answer:

$98.28\:\mathrm{ft^3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by $V=l\cdot w\cdot h$ , where $l$ is the length of the prism, $w$ is the width of the prism, and $h$ is the height of the prism.

Substituting given values, we get:

$V=2.5\cdot 4.25\cdot 9.25=98.28125\approx \boxed{98.28\:\mathrm{ft^3}}$

Since "Simplify your answers" is very subjective, I've rounded to the nearest hundredth as that is reasonably universal, but you may need to adjust the rounding as desired.

Bella saw that 7 out of 11 people brought an umbrella to the beach. There 99 people there. How many of them did not have a beach

Alinara [238K]

Hello!

7 out of 11 people brought an umbrella to the beach

this is a fraction of 7/11

We multiply this by 99 to get how many people brought an umbrella out of 99

7/11 * 99 = 63

You subtract this from 99 to see how many did not have an umbrella

99 - 63 = 36

The answer is 36 people

Hope this helps!
