Raising a whole number to a power means:
Take (a number of things) a number of times, and then possibly
take that big number of things a number of times again.
Raising a fraction to an exponent means:
Take a piece of (a piece of one thing), and then possibly
take just a piece of that smaller piece.

Answer:
<em>(-2)2 - (-8) + 1</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
When you substitute values into an algebraic equation, you need to input the values exactly how they are given. "w" must go where there are "w"s, and "v" must go where the "v"s are, otherwise you will get an incorrect answer. All values must also carry over their signs--they are one unit--and must be inserted as such, which is why - (-8) is correct, but not - (8) or - 8. (This is because those two negatives will cancel each other out and become +8 when solving). The parenthesis around the values are important because they protect the original values of the variables, which is why (-2)2 is correct. In the case of (-2)2, it also signifies that they are "attached" by multiplication, and when solving would become -4. Without signifying that the variables are separate from the rest of the equation via the parenthesis, it becomes very easy to solve it incorrectly.
The answer is C and D
First we must make one side of the equation zero, so we subtract 7 on both sides of the equation, making the equation 9x^2 - 6x - 6 = 0
Then we will use the quadratic formula to find the answers.
using the Quadratic Formula where:
a = 9, b = -6, and c = -6
and the formula is 6 +-
