On top: (-2)³ = -2 × -2 × -2 = -8
(x²)³ = x^6 (the exponents multiply)
and of course, (y)³ = y³
On the bottom: (xy²z)² = x² y^4 z²
(-yz)² = y²z²
Multiplying these together, the exponents add and we get x² y^6 z^4.

So, your reasoning is correct for what you have so far.
Your next step would be cancelling shared factors from the top and bottom.
Just like with regular fractions, if the numerator and denominator are divisible by the same number, you can divide them by it to simplify. (ex: 4/6 = 2/3)
Well, x^6 and x^2 are both divisible by x^2, right?
We can also cancel the y^3.
It might help to visualise the factors like this:

Once you've cancelled out x² and y³ from each, you're left with

The following,... and uh I don't have a journal ;->
Step-by-step explanation:
You and your 10 friends each have 121 books that you will be bringing to a Best Book Barrage book exchange. Once everyone arrives you count a total of books. Assuming everyone brings the same amount of books how many people came to the exchange?
Answer: 8,228
Answer:
The degree of overlap between the two distributions is moderate.
Step-by-step explanation:
It starts at 100% - 15% = 85% after the first year. $15,000*0.85 = $12,750
The second year is further reduced 100% - 16% = 84%
$12,750*0.84 = $10,710
