The order of operations is:
Parenthesis
Exponent
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction
So division comes first:
Now subtraction:
Answer: b. 6(x + 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given word phrase = the product 4 more than x and 6
where , 4 more than x is equivalent to 
Therefore the algebraic expression for the given word phase "the product 4 more than x and 6"
=
Hence b. is the right option.
The algebraic expression for the given word phase is 
Answer:
Y to the 9th power
Step-by-step explanation:
Your answer is 10^(- 4).
Think about how exponents with a base 10 work. 10^1 = 10, 10^2 = 100, 10^3 = 1000. It's just add a zero to the right side as you go up.
Then think about 10^0. Anything to a zero power is 1. Only way to go is into negative exponents now. If for positive exponents on 10 we add a zero to the right side, then for negative exponents we add them to the left. Only difference is we have a decimal.
10^(- 1) = 0.1
10^(- 2) = 0.01
10^(- 3) = 0.001
And then your answer
10^(- 4) = 0.0001
Hopefully that explanation makes sense. Exponents can be rough to explain when you're not face-to-face or using some sort of live animation to talk through it. If you're still confused, I'd suggest talking to your instructor.
