Evaluate.
((-1)2 - 3)3 + 5 · (-5)
= {(-1 x -1) - 3}3 + 5 x -5
= {1 - 3}3 - 25
= {-2}3 - 25 = -8 - 25
= - 33
Simplify the following expression:
= -2w -2u -3*(-4u) -3*(-6u)
= -2w - 2u +12u +18u
= 10w + 16u
When converting from Fahrenheit degrees to Celsius degrees , a well known formula is used:
. Solve for .
9C = 5{F - 32}
9C = 5F - 5 x 32
9C = 5F - 160
5F = 9C + 160
F = {9C + 160}/5
F = 9/5*{C +160/9}
Simplify.
= y1 x y5 x y3
= y(1 + 5 + 3)
= y9
Simplify.
= z(6 - 5)*x(3 - 4)
= z*x-1
= z/x
Simplify.
= {x4}3/({-2}3{y}3)
= x(4 x 3)/{(-2 x -2 x -2)*y3}
= x12/-8y3
= -x12/8y3
Write your answer without parentheses.
Rewrite the following without an exponent.
Exponent of -1 means invert the fraction so
= 7/8
Simplify.
Write your answer without using negative exponents.
= u(-5 x 4)
= u-20
The negative exponent means invert and turn the exponent to a positive thus
= 1/u20
Simplify.
3w2w-2 · 4v-9v · 2x-8x8
Use only positive exponents in your answer.
= 3w(2 - 2). 4v(1 - 9).2x(8 - 8)
= 3*4*2w0.v-8.x0
Any variable to the power of zero is just 1 thus
= 24v-8
A negative exponent means we invert the variable v and change the expeonent to a positive exponent thus
= 24/v8
Simplify.
= -5u2 + 2u + 1 - 7u + 8 -2u2 -1(4u) -1(-1)
= -5u2 - 2u2 +2u - 7u - 4u + 8 + 1 + 1
Collect u2 , u and number terms together we get
= -7u2 - 9u + 10
Multiply.
= 4*3*4w(4 + 2).v(1 + 9)
= 48w6.v10
Simplify your answer as much as possible.
Multiply.
= x*x +7*x - 3*x -3(7)
= x2 +4x - 21
Simplify your answer.
Rewrite without parentheses and simplify.
= (3u - 2)*(3u - 2)
= 3u*3u -2(3u) -2(3u) -2(-2)
= 9u2 - 6u - 6u + 4
= 9u2 - 12u + 4
Multiply.
Simplify your answer.
= 3u*6u + 3u*3w + 3u*1 - 5*(6u) - 5(3w) -5(1)
= 18u2 + 9uw + 3u - 30u - 15w - 5
Collecting like terms together
= = 18u2 + 9uw - 27u - ...
