Basically you would break down the numbers let's say you start off with 48, 8 times 6 gives you 48 what can go into 8, 2 and 4 then you say what can go into 4 which is 2 and 2 then break down 6, 3 an 2 basically you break it down all the way until you get the prime numbers
The answer is the first one because you have to multiply the outsider five to the other numbers inside the parenthesis. You don't add them or subtract them because they don't have the same variable
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given:

This reads as: 256 to the power of "-4 to the power of 3/2".
Therefore, we need to deal with the "-4 to the power of 3/2" first.
Rewrite the 4 as 2²:




Therefore:

Replace "-4 to the power of 3/2" with -8 :

Rewrite 256 as 2⁸ :

Answer:
w=5
Step-by-step explanation:
using the distributive property to simplify the equation
-4(w)+1(-4)=-24 so
-4w-4=-24 (adding 4 to both sides)
-4w==20 (divide by -4)
w=5
Start at -8 move to the left 8 more times,. You get -16.
