Zero pairs are basically 2 numbers that add up to zero like -1 +1 = 0 they cancel each other out. By assigning tiles to represent each number, you can cancel out the zero pairs and the remaining tiles will represent the sum or difference of the numbers.

You need a function that maps a number to its cube.
y = x^3
Answer:
x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
given
4 - ax = 2 ( isolate the term in x by subtracting 4 from both sides )
- ax = 2 - 4 = - 2 ( divide both sides by - a )
x =
= 
! means factorial, if you did not already know. It means multiply together all the numbers leading up to that number. For example, 4! = 4x3x2x1 = 24
Evaluate means just solve it.
9! = 9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1 = 362880
5! = 5x4x3x2x1 = 120
362880 - 120 = 362760
There is your answer
