Subtracting a negative is the same as adding:
$$
-9 - (-4) = -9 + 4 = -5
$$
✔ Answer: $-5$
---
Follow order of operations (PEMDAS): multiplication first, then subtraction.
$$
12 \times 6 = 72 \\
72 - 5 = 67
$$
✔ Answer: $67$
---
Find a common denominator. The least common denominator of 3 and 4 is 12.
$$
\frac{2}{3} = \frac{8}{12}, \quad \frac{5}{4} = \frac{15}{12} \\
\frac{8}{12} + \frac{15}{12} = \frac{23}{12}
$$
✔ Answer: $\frac{23}{12}$ or $1\frac{11}{12}$
---
Simplify $\sqrt{18}$:
$$
\sqrt{18} = \sqrt{9 \times 2} = \sqrt{9} \cdot \sqrt{2} = 3\sqrt{2}
$$
So:
$$
-\sqrt{18} = -3\sqrt{2}
$$
✔ Answer: $-3\sqrt{2}$
---
Solve for $x$:
$$
5x = -4 \\
x = -\frac{4}{5}
$$
✔ Answer: $x = -\frac{4}{5}$
---
This means: take the 4th root of 81, then raise to the 3rd power.
First, note that:
$$
81 = 3^4
$$
So:
$$
81^{3/4} = (3^4)^{3/4} = 3^{4 \cdot (3/4)} = 3^3 = 27
$$
✔ Answer: $27$
---
Convert percent to decimal and multiply:
$$
30\% = 0.30 \\
0.30 \times 200 = 60
$$
✔ Answer: $60$
---
Wait — this is written as $6 \overline{)39}$, which means "39 divided by 6".
So:
$$
39 \div 6 = 6 \text{ remainder } 3
$$
Because:
$$
6 \times 6 = 36 \\
39 - 36 = 3
$$
So:
$$
39 \div 6 = 6 \text{ R } 3
$$
Or as a decimal: $6.5$
But since it shows the process with subtraction, we can write:
$$
\begin{array}{r}
6 \\
6 \overline{)39} \\
-36 \\
\hline
3 \\
\end{array}
$$
✔ Answer: $6$ remainder $3$, or $6.5$ if decimal.

We want the square root of $1.6 \times 10^{-7}$.
Use:
$$
\sqrt{a \times b} = \sqrt{a} \times \sqrt{b}
$$
So:
$$
\sqrt{1.6 \times 10^{-7}} = \sqrt{1.6} \times \sqrt{10^{-7}} = \sqrt{1.6} \times 10^{-3.5}
$$
But better to write $10^{-7}$ as $(10^{-7})$, so:
$$
\sqrt{10^{-7}} = 10^{-7/2} = 10^{-3.5} = 10^{-3} \times 10^{-0.5} = 0.001 \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{10}} \approx 0.001 \times 0.3162 = 3.162 \times 10^{-4}
$$
Now $\sqrt{1.6} \approx 1.2649$
So:
$$
\sqrt{1.6 \times 10^{-7}} \approx 1.2649 \times 3.162 \times 10^{-4} \quad \text{Wait — no!}
$$
Actually:
$$
\sqrt{1.6 \times 10^{-7}} = \sqrt{1.6} \times \sqrt{10^{-7}} = \sqrt{1.6} \times 10^{-3.5}
$$
But $10^{-3.5} = 10^{-3} \times 10^{-0.5} = 0.001 \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{10}} \approx 0.001 \times 0.3162 = 3.162 \times 10^{-4}$
And $\sqrt{1.6} \approx 1.2649$
So total:
$$
\sqrt{1.6 \times 10^{-7}} \approx 1.2649 \times 3.162 \times 10^{-4}? \quad \text{No — wait!}
$$
Actually:
$$
\sqrt{1.6 \times 10^{-7}} = \sqrt{1.6} \times 10^{-3.5}
$$
But $10^{-3.5} = 10^{-3} \times 10^{-0.5} = 0.001 \times 0.3162 = 3.162 \times 10^{-4}$
So:
$$
\sqrt{1.6} \approx 1.2649 \\
1.2649 \times 3.162 \times 10^{-4} \quad \text{No — that's wrong.}
$$
Wait — let’s do it correctly:
$$
\sqrt{1.6 \times 10^{-7}} = \sqrt{1.6} \times \sqrt{10^{-7}} = \sqrt{1.6} \times 10^{-3.5}
$$
But $10^{-3.5} = 10^{-3} \times 10^{-0.5} = 0.001 \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{10}} \approx 0.001 \times 0.3162 = 3.162 \times 10^{-4}$
Then:
$$
\sqrt{1.6} \approx 1.2649 \\
\Rightarrow \text{Total} \approx 1.2649 \times 3.162 \times 10^{-4}? \quad \text{No — it's just } \sqrt{1.6} \times 10^{-3.5}
$$
Better to write:
$$
\sqrt{1.6 \times 10^{-7}} = \sqrt{1.6} \times 10^{-3.5} \approx 1.2649 \times 10^{-3.5}
$$
But $10^{-3.5} = 3.162 \times 10^{-4}$, so:
$$
1.2649 \times 3.162 \times 10^{-4} \approx ? \quad \text{No — actually:}
$$
Wait — simpler: write $1.6 \times 10^{-7} = 16 \times 10^{-8}$
Then:
$$
\sqrt{16 \times 10^{-8}} = \sqrt{16} \times \sqrt{10^{-8}} = 4 \times 10^{-4} = 0.0004
$$
That’s much cleaner!
Yes:
$$
1.6 \times 10^{-7} = 16 \times 10^{-8} \\
\sqrt{16 \times 10^{-8}} = \sqrt{16} \times \sqrt{10^{-8}} = 4 \times 10^{-4} = 0.0004
$$
✔ Answer: $0.0004$ or $4 \times 10^{-4}$

Factor the quadratic:
We need two numbers that multiply to 6 and add to 5 → 2 and 3.
$$
x^2 + 5x + 6 = (x + 2)(x + 3) = 0
$$
So:
$$
x = -2 \quad \text{or} \quad x = -3
$$
✔ Answer: $x = -2$ or $x = -3$

72 - 5 = 67
$$
✔ Answer: $67$
---
3. $\frac{2}{3} + \frac{5}{4}$
Find a common denominator. The least common denominator of 3 and 4 is 12.
$$
\frac{2}{3} = \frac{8}{12}, \quad \frac{5}{4} = \frac{15}{12} \\
\frac{8}{12} + \frac{15}{12} = \frac{23}{12}
$$
✔ Answer: $\frac{23}{12}$ or $1\frac{11}{12}$
---
4. $-\sqrt{18}$
Simplify $\sqrt{18}$:
$$
\sqrt{18} = \sqrt{9 \times 2} = \sqrt{9} \cdot \sqrt{2} = 3\sqrt{2}
$$
So:
$$
-\sqrt{18} = -3\sqrt{2}
$$
✔ Answer: $-3\sqrt{2}$

Solve for $x$:
$$
5x = -4 \\
x = -\frac{4}{5}
$$
✔ Answer: $x = -\frac{4}{5}$

6. $81^{3/4}$
This means: take the 4th root of 81, then raise to the 3rd power.
First, note that:
$$
81 = 3^4
$$
So:
$$
81^{3/4} = (3^4)^{3/4} = 3^{4 \cdot (3/4)} = 3^3 = 27
$$
✔ Answer: $27$
---
7. $30\%$ of $200$?
Convert percent to decimal and multiply:
$$
30\% = 0.30 \\
0.30 \times 200 = 60
$$
✔ Answer: $60$
---
8. Long division: $6 \div 39$
Wait — this is written as $6 \overline{)39}$, which means "39 divided by 6".
So:
$$
39 \div 6 = 6 \text{ remainder } 3
$$
Because:
$$
6 \times 6 = 36 \\
39 - 36 = 3
$$
So:
$$
39 \div 6 = 6 \text{ R } 3
$$
Or as a decimal: $6.5$
But since it shows the process with subtraction, we can write:
$$
\begin{array}{r}
6 \\
6 \overline{)39} \\
-36 \\
\hline
3 \\
\end{array}
$$
✔ Answer: $6$ remainder $3$, or $6.5$ if decimal.

9. $\sqrt{1.6 \times 10^{-7}}$
We want the square root of $1.6 \times 10^{-7}$.
Use:
$$
\sqrt{a \times b} = \sqrt{a} \times \sqrt{b}
$$
So:
$$
\sqrt{1.6 \times 10^{-7}} = \sqrt{1.6} \times \sqrt{10^{-7}} = \sqrt{1.6} \times 10^{-3.5}
$$
But better to write $10^{-7}$ as $(10^{-7})$, so:
$$
\sqrt{10^{-7}} = 10^{-7/2} = 10^{-3.5} = 10^{-3} \times 10^{-0.5} = 0.001 \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{10}} \approx 0.001 \times 0.3162 = 3.162 \times 10^{-4}
$$
Now $\sqrt{1.6} \approx 1.2649$
So:
$$
\sqrt{1.6 \times 10^{-7}} \approx 1.2649 \times 3.162 \times 10^{-4} \quad \text{Wait — no!}
$$
Actually:
$$
\sqrt{1.6 \times 10^{-7}} = \sqrt{1.6} \times \sqrt{10^{-7}} = \sqrt{1.6} \times 10^{-3.5}
$$
But $10^{-3.5} = 10^{-3} \times 10^{-0.5} = 0.001 \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{10}} \approx 0.001 \times 0.3162 = 3.162 \times 10^{-4}$
And $\sqrt{1.6} \approx 1.2649$
So total:
$$
\sqrt{1.6 \times 10^{-7}} \approx 1.2649 \times 3.162 \times 10^{-4}? \quad \text{No — wait!}
$$
Actually:
$$
\sqrt{1.6 \times 10^{-7}} = \sqrt{1.6} \times 10^{-3.5}
$$
But $10^{-3.5} = 10^{-3} \times 10^{-0.5} = 0.001 \times 0.3162 = 3.162 \times 10^{-4}$
So:
$$
\sqrt{1.6} \approx 1.2649 \\
1.2649 \times 3.162 \times 10^{-4} \quad \text{No — that's wrong.}
$$
Wait — let’s do it correctly:
$$

Then:
$$
\sqrt{1.6} \approx 1.2649 \\
\Rightarrow \text{Total} \approx 1.2649 \times 3.162 \times 10^{-4}? \quad \text{No — it's just } \sqrt{1.6} \times 10^{-3.5}

$$
That’s much cleaner!
Yes:
$$
1.6 \times 10^{-7} = 16 \times 10^{-8} \\
\sqrt{16 \times 10^{-8}} = \sqrt{16} \times \sqrt{10^{-8}} = 4 \times 10^{-4} = 0.0004
$$
✔ Answer: $0.0004$ or $4 \times 10^{-4}$
