Answer:
-49
Step-by-step explanation:
rule of thumb: whenever you have two negatives, they equal a positive! when you have one negative and one positive, it is a negative!
- let's start by going from left to right :))
- -24 -(-6) + (-31)
- -(-6) is actually + 6!
- -24 + 6 + (-31)
- +(-31) would be -31 because one - and one + is a -
- -24 + 6 - 31
- -18 - 31
- -49

When you multiply a same number but with different powers, you can simply add the powers together. So, in your question, add the powers -1 and -7 together.
7^(-1) x 7^(-7) = 7^(-8)
When you divide a same number but with different powers, you subtract the power at the top with the power from the denominator. So, -8 - (-7) = -1.
7^(-8) / 7^(-7) = 7^(-1)
So your answer would be 7^(-1).
Hopefully my explanation was clear?
4m+28=44
4m=44-28
4m=16
m=16/4
m=4
