2x^-2y^-2 = 2/x^2y^2 = 2/(2)^2 x (3)2 = 2/4 x 9 = 2/36 = 1/18
Answer:
for example, if f(x)= x^2 + 3
and they gave write f(5)= 5^2 +3
=25+3=28
The first one is 4
Second is 5/9
Third is 1/2
Fourth is 11
The answer depends on the perspective; however, this question is often meant to be a "trick question"; with the answer being: 2 (two) apples!
_______________________________________________
The rationale behind this answer is that if there are three apples, but you "take 2 away" you now have "2" apples, because YOU are the one who "took away the 2 apples"—so presumably, YOU have the "2 apples" that YOU "took away"!
