Answer:
x<6 this is the answer because the circle is hallow (not including) and going left (less than)
Answer:
non of these choices I guess
Answer:
256
Step-by-step explanation:
A calculator works well for this.

None of the minus signs are subject to the exponents (because they are not in parentheses, as (-1)^5, for example. Since there are an even number of them in the product, their product is +1 and they can be ignored.
1 to any power is still 1, so the factors (1^n) can be ignored.
After you ignore all of the things that can be ignored, your problem simplifies to ...
(2^2)(2^-3)^-2
The rules of exponents applicable to this are ...
(a^b)^c = a^(b·c)
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
Then your product simplifies to ...
(2^2)(2^((-3)(-2)) = (2^2)(2^6)
= 2^(2+6)
= 2^8 = 256
6/9 and 16/18 is what we will mainly look at since the whole numbers are the same. the common denominator is 18. so you would multiply 6/9 by 2 (both the numerator and denominator multiplied by 2 ) therefore you will get 12/18. Which is bigger 12/18 or 16/18? 16/18 is bigger, therefore you would say sixteen and 6/9 is less than sixteen and 16/18. your answer should be this below. :)
16,6/9 < 16, 16/18.
