C. -2 because it is higher up in the negatives whereas -6 and -13 are lower even though the number seems greater
1/3 of 45 is 15, meaning 15 students gave their speech on day 1
Today 2/5 of the remaining students gave their speech. That’s 12 more
So a total of 27 students gave their speeches. That means 18 students remain. The answer is 18
The answer is B.
Negative numbers are to the far left if you were using a number line, so -1 to the 3rd power is -1. Everything else is positive. 1/4 is the same as 0.25 which is less than positive 1, positive 8.8 is next and the last would be -5 to the 2nd power which is 25.
