Ok, first put in the -2 for each b. That gives:
|-4(-2)-8|+|-1(-(-2))^2|+2(-2)^3
Let's do each section.
The first section is |-4(-2)-8)|
-4 times -2 is 8, minus 8 is 0. The absolute value of 0 is still 0.
Now we move on to |-1(-(-2))^2)|
First we do exponents
-(-2) is 2, and 2^2 is 4. 4 times -1 is -4. The absolute value of -4 is 4
Now the last section, 2(-2)^3
Exponents first: (-2)^3 is -2 * -2 * -2, which is -8.
-8*2=-16.
0+4+(-16)=-12
The first test was 68 points
Answer:
4 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
2 1/2 + 1 1/4 + 1/2 = 5/2 + 5/4 + 1/2
LCM = 4
5/2 x 2/2 = 10/4
5/4 = 5/4
1/2 x 2/2 = 2/4
10/4 + 5/4 + 2/4 = 17/4
= 4 1/4
Therefore he put 4 1/4 cups altogether.
Answer:
take your pick. Each has its own reason.
Step-by-step explanation:
As with a lot of "doesn't belong" problems, the one that is different depends on your criteria. In the attached figure, each one "doesn't belong" for a different reason. Those reasons are listed below each number line.

I might choose the lower left: "addition, not subtraction", as it is the only one with arrows in the same direction. That makes its difference from the others more obvious, perhaps.
