Raising a whole number to a power means: 

             Take (a number of things) a number of times, and then possibly
             take that big number of things a number of times again.

Raising a fraction to an exponent means: 

             Take a piece of (a piece of one thing), and then possibly
              take just a piece of that smaller piece.

-1/2x+12=-16 1/2 help<br> Plz I need it quick
Leokris [45]
Subtract 12 from both sides
- \frac{1}{2} x+12-12=-16 \frac{1}{2} -12- \frac{1}{2}x=-28 \frac{1}{2}
Divide by -\frac{1}{2} which means multiply by -2
x=-28 \frac{1}{2} *-2=57

Hope that helps
