16: -7(5)= -35 ( REMEMBER THE MOUTH EATS THE BIGGEST NUMBER!)
-6(-6)= 36 therefore 36 is greater than -35
18: they are exactly the same because in multiplication with inters it matters when the signs change. so 3(-6) = -18 ad -3(6)= -18 then -18=-18
20: Same as 18 where division has the same rules. if 8x5=40 then 40/8=5
-40/8=-5 and 40/(-8)=-5 then -5=-5

<u>Solution</u><u>:</u>


- Now, square root and square gets cancel out in the LHS. And in the RHS, apply the identity: (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b².

- Now, transpose 4x and 4 to LHS.

- Now, do the addition and subtraction.

Answer:
x = 33
Step-by-step explanation:
Because of the little square we know the total angle is 90
24 + 2x = 90
-24
2x = 66
/2
x = 33
$45+$18+$26-$21-$93
45+18=63
63+18=81
81+26=107
107-21=86
86-93=-7
