A) as the exponent decreases by one, the number is divided by 5
B) as the exponent decreases by one, the number is divided by 4
C) as the exponent decreases by one, the number is divided by 3
D) 4⁰ = 4 ÷ 4 = 1
4⁻¹ = 1 ÷ 4 = 
4⁻² =
÷ 4 = 
E) 3⁰ = 3 ÷ 3 = 1
3⁻¹ = 1 ÷ 3 = 
3⁻² =
÷ 3 = 
Area= (3 √(3) × s^2) ÷ s
s= side length
area=(3 √(3) × 16^2) ÷ 16
area= 83.1384387633
9.81 times 10 to the -5th power
2017 - 4000 = -2017. Hope it helps!
