Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
An negative exponent seems hard, but it really isn't!
Let's say you have 
All you do is inverse the expression, or find the reciprocal. When you do this the exponent changes to positive .

simplifies into 8. So, the result is

Answer:
$14.8
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a mistype in the question. It should say: ... <em>si cada uno de ellos hicieron una contribución de </em><em>dieciseis</em><em> pesos...</em>
So if everybody contributes $14, they make a total of 14*x, where x denotes the number of students. In this scenario, $4 are left, calling y to the cost of the trip, then:
14*x = y - 4 (eq. 1)
In the other scenario, everybody contributes $16 and $6 are in excess, so
16*x = y + 6 (eq. 2)
subtracting eq. 1 to eq. 2:
16*x - 14*x = y + 6 - (y - 4)
2*x = y + 6 - y + 4
2*x = 10
x = 10/2 = 5
Replacing this value in eq. 1:
14*5 = y - 4
70 + 4 = y
y = $74
If every student pays: 74/5 = $14.8, then they would get altogether the exact cost of the trip
