Hey there! I'm happy to help!
So we want to see which of these have the greatest value. Since these are all negative numbers, we want the one that is closest to zero.
So, we know that -1000 is going to furthest from 0. -10 will be further than -8 since it is a larger negative number, so it will be more negative than -8.
-1/2 is just barely negative, so it is going to be closer to -0 than -8, so the correct answer is C. -1/2.
Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D

Answer: 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in x to the expression.

When there is the same base of exponents is being multiplied the exponents add together and the base stays the same.
So this simplifies to,
.
This then solves to 25.
I'm sorry but the solution you proposed was a bit hard to follow, so I'll just post my solution: we convert "2 and 1/2" to a single fraction:

So, we know that 5/2 gallons cost 60 dollars, which means

To find the cost of a single gallon, we have to solve the equation for g:
