In order to do this you first have to solve the parenthesis. Why because the pemdas tells you so, first parenthesis then exponents then multiplication then division then addition and then subtraction. So first subtract 7 from 9 to get (2)^-3 now multiply 2 3 times. -2*-2*-2 to get -8
Hope this helps
NC18 apparently this is too short of an answer and is not explained well
14/12 because if u go on calculator and do 5 divided by 12 + 9 divided by 12 u get 1.166667 or something and then u do 14/12 and it’s the same number.
Answer:
a=7.85-1/2^b
Step-by-step explanation:
2a=15.7-b Move variable to the right side and change its sign
2a=15.7-b Divide both sides of the equation by 2
a=7.85-1/2^b The final solution for a is
Cos x = 15÷17
because cos is adjacent side over hypotenuse.
