Answer:

-20

Step-by-step explanation:

$5 * (-6 / -1+ -10)$

According to PEMDAS, we need to do the math in the parentheses first.

$-6 / -1 + -10$

Applying PEMDAS to the inside of the parentheses, then we have to divide -6 by -1, where we would get 6.

$6 + -10$

Adding a negative is the same as subtracting, so adding negative 10 is the same as subtracting 10.

$6 - 10$

Subtracting, we get 6 - 10 = -4 and we're left with:

$5 * (-4)$

Multiplying, <u>our final answer is -20.</u>

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:let x be the number of cars, and 7-x be the number of trucks.

25x + 30(7-x) = 195

25x + 210-30x = 195

5x = 15

x = 3

So, 3 cars were not rented. If 7 total vehicles were not rented, 7 - 3 cars = 4 Trucks

4 Trucks were not rented.

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\dfrac{36}{25}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Use}\ a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}\\\\\dfrac{5^{-2}\cdot9}{2^4\cdot4^{-3}}=(5^{-2}\cdot9):(2^4\cdot4^{-3})=\left(\dfrac{1}{5^2}\cdot9\right):\left(2^4\cdot(2^2)^{-3}\right)\\\\\text{use}\ (a^n)^m=a^{nm}\\\\=\left(\dfrac{1}{25}\cdot9\right):(2^4\cdot2^{-6})\\\\\text{use}\ a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\=\dfrac{9}{25}:2^{4+(-6)}=\dfrac{9}{25}:2^{-2}=\dfrac{9}{25}:\dfrac{1}{2^2}=\dfrac{9}{25}:\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{9}{25}\cdot\dfrac{4}{1}=\dfrac{36}{25}$
