There isn't a prime factorization of -96
It could be either y = 12.75x or y = 13x. Check if you made a typing error because these rates are both better than B
Expression 1 is 25
6*7-3^2*9+4^3
First simplify all the exponents to get 6*7 - 9 * 9 + 64 and then multiply the two numbers to get 42 - 81 + 64 and just add = 25
For expression 2, if you put the parantheses around (5+4)*2+6-2*2-1, it'll be 19
(5+4)*2+6-2*2-1
9*2+6-2*2-1
18+6-4-1
24-5
19
Remember order of operations
To find the total length of the two copper pipes, we need to add them together.
2 5/12 + 3 7/12 = 5 12/12
Since 12/12 = 1 or a whole, we can simplify this further.
5 12/12 = 6
Hope this helps!
