8 - 15 means subtract the positive number 15 from 8.

8 - 15 = 8 + (-15) = -7

8 - (-15) means subtract the negative number -15 from 8.

Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number.

8 - (-15) = 8 + 15 = 23

8 - 15 = -7, and 8 - (-15) = 23. The expressions mean different operations and have different answers.

Maslowich
Heyo Kiddo. How are you doing today? 

Let's figure this out. 

So in number form, the equation will be looking a little like this: 

2(5) ^{3} / (9-4)^4

To solve. 

2(5) ^{3} / (9-4)^4 \ \textless \ Parenthesis first\ \textgreater \ &#10;&#10;2(5)^{3} / 5^4 \ \textless \ Exponents\ \textgreater \ &#10;&#10;2(125) / 625 (Multiply)&#10;&#10;250 / 625  (Divide)&#10;&#10;0.4  (Answer)

So I hope this answers your question and that you have a great day. :)

4. A mountain climber needs to descend 2,000 feet.
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

C. 500 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

If we want to make it all equal, we can divide the 2,000 ft by 4 because we have 4 equal descents.

2000 ÷ 4 = 500

He should travel <u>500 feet</u> in each descent.
