Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(-6-3x)+8=83

Distribute the -5 to both terms in the parentheses by multiplication, multiply the -5 by the -6 and the -3x.

30+15x+8=83

Add like terms, add the 30 and the 8.

38+15x=83

Subtract 38 from both sides to isolate the x on the left side.

15x=45

Divide by 15 on both sides to solve for x.

x=3

$( { {5}^{3} })^{ - 3} \\ \\ which\:means \:that \: {5}^{3}\: is \:multiplied \:thrice\: with\: itself\\ \\ = {5}^{3 \times - 3} \\ \\ = {5}^{ - 9} \\ \\= \frac{1}{ {5}^{9} } \\ \\ = \frac{1}{5 \times 5 \times 5 \times 5 \times 5 \times 5 \times 5 \times 5 \times 5} \\ \\ = \frac{1}{1953125}$

<u>Note</u>:-

$( { {a}^{m} })^{n} = {a}^{m \times n}$

${a}^{ - m} = \frac{1}{ {a}^{m} }$
