Ahh yes, negative exponents always give us a scare once and a while. All the negative means is to flip the position of its base. For instance, if x has a negative exponent and x in the denominator, all you would have to do is move x to the numerator with the same power (except it's no longer negative). Before we substitute x and all the other variables which the values given, let's eliminate the negatives first.
After flipping positions/eliminating the negative exponents it should look like this:

which simplifies to

now that everything is simplified, and all negative exponents are eliminated we can substitute x with 2, and y with (-4).

which simplifies to

Final Answer: - \frac{1}{32} [/tex]
Answer:
The Answer would be 4n
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Marcus ran four times as far this week, we need to know how far he ran last week in order to solve this expression. Since we do not know this information it becomes our variable (n). From the statement we can also infer that there is multiplication since he states the word "times". Therefore our Algebraic Expression would be the following.
P = 4n
P being distance ran by Marcus, and n being distance ran last week by Marcus.
