It does not matter what order it is in when using addition.
(15p⁺⁴.q⁻⁶) /(-20p⁻¹².q⁻³).
Remember that a⁻ⁿ = 1/aⁿ and 1/a⁻ⁿ = aⁿ
(-15/4).(p⁻⁴.q⁻⁶)(p⁺¹².q⁺³).
(-15/20).(p⁻⁴.p¹².q⁻⁶.q³)
Remember aⁿ.aˣ = aⁿ⁺ˣ
(-15/20).(p⁸.q⁻³)
-3/5(p⁸.q⁻³)
.2+3.6=3.8 because all you do is add the .2 feet with 3.6 feet
I think it is me !!!!!!!$$$$$$$!$
-3.0625 is the answer to x
