The question is worded a bit strangely (in my opinion anyway), but I think your teacher wants you to describe how exponents work.
Let's say we had the expression 
The base is 5 as its the bottom most value (think of something like the base of a tree or building). The exponent is 3.
The exponent of 3 tells the reader to multiply the base 5 by itself 3 times like so
With larger exponents, it becomes more tedious to write out all the repeated multiplications, which is why many calculators have an exponent button to save time.

Answer:
n = -36
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is -36 because:
1) We first have to subtract -24 and 12 to find n
-24 - 12 = -36
This is because whenever there are two negative signs, multiply it.
Negative x Negative = Positive
We have to do, 24 + 12 which is 36. Finally, we just put the greater number's sign to the answer. 24 is greater than 12, therefore, we put a negative sign before 36.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
22.67 containers.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of cars washed is the average by the total hours worked:
Given that each car uses 1/3 tin of wax, the total containers is calculated as:
Hence, the car wash uses 22.67 containers of wax per day.
