Answer:
256
Step-by-step explanation:
A calculator works well for this.
_____
None of the minus signs are subject to the exponents (because they are not in parentheses, as (-1)^5, for example. Since there are an even number of them in the product, their product is +1 and they can be ignored.
1 to any power is still 1, so the factors (1^n) can be ignored.
After you ignore all of the things that can be ignored, your problem simplifies to ...
(2^2)(2^-3)^-2
The rules of exponents applicable to this are ...
(a^b)^c = a^(b·c)
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
Then your product simplifies to ...
(2^2)(2^((-3)(-2)) = (2^2)(2^6)
= 2^(2+6)
= 2^8 = 256
Find area of the semi circle.
The diameter is, half of that would be the radius, which is 3.
= 14.1
Find the area of the rectangle.
6 * 4 =24
Add the two areas together.
24 + 14.1 = 38.1
You can use photomath for this
Example:
The sum of two consecutive integers is -15. What is the product of the two integers?
x = 1st consecutive integer
x + 1 = 2nd consecutive integer {consecutive integers increase by 1}
x + x + 1 = -15 {the sum of two consecutive integers is -15}
2x + 1 = -15 {combined like terms}
2x = -16 {subtracted 1 from each side}
x = -8 {divided each side by 2}
x + 1 = -7 {substituted -8, in for x, into x + 1}
-8 and -7 are the two consecutive integers
Their product is 56.
The statement is "8 less than the product of 6 and a number, x." "Less than" indicates subtraction - you will subtract 8 from a number. That number is "the product of 6 and a number, x." "The product" of these numbers will result with multiplication - you are multiplying 6 and x.
All this gives you the expression: 6x - 8.
