Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
We have several properties of exponents in use here. The two that are used are:
<em>(Exponents with the same base that are being multiplied together can have the exponents added)</em>
<em>(A base raised to a power, and then raised to another power means that you can multiply the exponents to get the same result as doing inside operations and then outside operations)</em>
<em />
Let's apply it!
First, let's simplify what's inside the parenthesis.
<em>(Remember, they have the same base of "x", so we can add the exponents)</em>
=
= 
Now we have
. Let's use the second rule.
=

A(n)=a+(n-1)d
A(40)= -1+(40-1)-4
A(40)= -1+39(-4)
A(40)= -1+(-156)
A(40)= -157
Answer:
F, 3^4+x
Step-by-step explanation:
You just have to add the powers together but not the actual base, you keep it as it is
Answer:
- 4
g = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
- 36 = - 4g
- 4g = - 36
- 4g ÷ - 4 = - 36 ÷ - 4
g = 9
