You have to add the last number to itself. So the next number would be 32 because 16 + 16 equals 32. Then you add 32 + 32 so the next number would be 64
1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128
I believe you just have to draw 2 little lines in between AB and CD.
Number of calories consumed on Monday = 2161
Number of Calories consumed on Tuesday = 2378
Number of Calories consumed on Wednesday = 1841
Daily average intake is 2200
Let calories intake on Thursday be X
Now ,
Average = sum of total calories/ number of calories
=> 2200 = 2161+2378+1841+X/4
=> 2200 x 4 = 6377 + X
=> 8800 = 6377 + X
=> X = 8800-6377
=> X = 2423
So Samuel must consume 2423 calories on Thursday
X^m means x times itself m times
(-6)^5 means -6 time itself 5 times
simplify it says
remember that
(mn)^x=(m^x)(n^x)
undistribute the -1
(-6)^5=(-1)^5 times (6^5)
(-1)^5=-1 since it is odd power
can be simplified to
-6^5
(note, -6^5 vs (-6)^5 PEMDAS)
