$a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\-16a^{-3}b^{-5}\cdot2a^{-4}b^2=(-16\cdot2)(a^{-3}a^{-4})(b^{-5}b^2})\\\\=-32a^{-3+(-4)}b^{-5+2}=\boxed{-32a^{-7}b^{-3}}$

Answer:

$x=-\sqrt2\text{ or } x=\sqrt2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

$7+2x^2=11$

To solve, we will isolate the x variable. Therefore, subtract 7 from both sides:

$2x^2=4\\$

Divide both sides by 2:

$x^2=2$

Take the square root of both sides. Since we’re taking an event root, we will need plus/minus. Therefore:

$x=\pm\sqrt2$

Therefore, our solutions are:

$x=-\sqrt2\text{ or } x=\sqrt2$
