BartSMP [9]

Answer:

(-4)³ = -64

(4)⁻³ = 1/64

Step-by-step explanation:

$( - 4) {}^{3} = ( - 4) \times ( - 4) \times ( - 4) = - 64 \\$

${4}^{ - 3} = (\frac{1}{4} ) {}^{3} \\$

$({ \frac{1}{4} )}^{3} = \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{64} \\$

2/6 is 1/3
So each friend needs to eat 1/3 of a meat pie

1+6=7
2+7=9
3+8=11
4+9=13
5+10=15

Because of this, the pair of opposite numbers are 3 and 8 if you want the pair that equal 11.
