No, becasue of PEMDAS
so parenthasees first
exponents next
mulitplciation next

(-2)^4=-2 times -2 times -2 times -2=positive number since even number of negative signs

-2^4=-1 times 2^2=-1 times 2 times 2 times 2 times 2=negative number since odd number of negative signs

They are not equivalent. 
because (-2)^4 is in the parenthesis so the - before 2 are together and both will go to the 4 power so the answer will be: (-2)^4 = 16 
but the other one is not in the parenthesis so the - will not go to the 4 power and the answer will be: -2^4 = -16 
so 16 is not equivalent to -16 :)))
i hope this is helpful 
have a nice day

twice the number of donuts was only 6 less than 24 times the number of cream puffs. 10 times the number of cream puffs was only
Karolina [17]

donuts and cream puffs were  45 & 4 respectively !

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , twice the number of donuts was only 6 less than 24 times the number of cream puffs. 10 times the number of cream puffs was only 5 less than the number of donuts   We need to find how many donuts and cream puffs were there . Let's find out:

Let number of donuts and cream puffs are x & y respectively ! So ,

  • twice the number of donuts was only 6 less than 24 times the number of cream puffs

According to this statement equation is :

⇒ 2x=24y-6

⇒ x=12y-3            ................(1)

  • 10 times the number of cream puffs was only 5 less than the number of donuts

According to this statement equation is :

⇒ 10y= x-5

⇒ x=10y+5               ................(2)

Equation (1) & (2) :

⇒ 12y-3=10y+5

⇒ 2y=8

⇒ y=4

Putting  y=4 in  x=12y-3  :

⇒ x = 12(4)-3

⇒ x = 45

Therefore , donuts and cream puffs were  45 & 4 respectively !
