(1/4)^-2 - (5^0 x 2) x 1^-1 =
(4/1)^2 - (1 x 2) x 1 = 16-2 = 14
If you raise something to the power of -2, swap numerator and denominator and remove the minus.
So (1/4)^-2 = 4^2 = 16
Also 1^-1 is just 1, not -1.

Answer:
Apples and Peaches
Step-by-step explanation:
It is convenient to compare the prices for 3 lbs of each of the fruits.
Multiply the price and quantity of Apples by 4:
... 4×(3/4 lb) = 4×$1.59
... 3 lb = $6.36 . . . . for apples
Multiply the price and quantity of Plums by 6:
... 6×(0.5 lb) = 6×$1.15
... 3 lb = $6.90 . . . . for plums
The two lowest-priced fruits are apples (6.36/(3 lb)) and peaches (5.37/(3 lb)).
