Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. \frac{(-2)^{-5}}{(-2)^{-10}}

Apply the Quotient rule: i.e. \frac{x^n}{x^m} = x^{n - m}

= (-2)^{-5 - (-10)} = (-2)^5} = -32

2. 2^{-1} * 2^{-4}

Apply the product rule: i.e. x^n * x^m = x^{n + m}.

= 2^{-1 + (-4)} = 2^{-1 - 4}

= 2^{-5}

Apply the negative exponent rule: i.e. x^{-n} = \frac{1}{x^n}

= 2^{-5} = \frac{1}{2^5}

= \frac{1}{32}

3. (-\frac{1}{2})^3 * (-\frac{1}{2})^2

Apply product rule

= (-\frac{1}{2})^{3 + 2}

= (-\frac{1}{2})^{5}

= -\frac{1^5}{2^5}

= -\frac{1}{32}

4. \frac{2}{2^{-4}}

Apply the rules of 1 and quotient rule

= 2^{1 - (-4)}

= 2^{1 + 4}

= 2^{5} = 32

Jack bought four dozen eggs at $10 per dozen six eggs were broken what percent of his money goes to waste?
Maurinko [17]
One dozen eggs is 48 eggs. Altogether that costs 40 dollars. If six of the eggs were broken then the money wasted would be 5 dollars.

The reason that it is 5 dollars is becuase it takes 10 to buy 12 eggs, and half of that is 6. So divide both 12 and 10 (separately) and you get 5 dollars for 6 eggs.

To get the percent you must divide 5 by 40.

The answer comes out to about 12.5% or 0.125.

So in the end, 12.5% of the money was wasted due to the broken eggs.

Hope this helped!
