-z³ + 5k^6 + z³ -10k^6
(-z³ cancels out with z³)
5k^6 -10k^6
(then subtract)
Answer is -5k^6

Answer:
a = 3, b = 12, c = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
The applicable rules of exponents are ...
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
(a^b)/(a^c) = a^(b-c)
(a^b)^c = a^(bc)

<em>Additional comment</em>
I find it easy to remember the rules of exponents by remembering that <em>an exponent signifies repeated multiplication</em>. It tells you how many times the base is a factor in the product.

Multiplication increases the number of times the base is a factor.

Similarly, division cancels factors from numerator and denominator, so decreases the number of times the base is a factor.

Answer:
$15 < $4n + $5
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that Billy needs to make more than $15 between his allowance and the lawns that he mows. This means our inequality should include $15<. Also, since Billy will make $4 per lawn, that means we need to multiply $4 by the number of lawns he needs to mow, n: $4n. So far we have the following: $15<$4n. Next, we know that he makes $5 each week, on top of what he makes mowing each law. This means we need to add the $5 to the $4n. When we put all of these pieces together, we will get the following inequality: $15<$4n+$5
