Perform the following calculation without using a calculator :
$${\frac{\left({\mathtt{4}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{5}}\right)}{\left({\mathtt{\,-\,}}{{\mathtt{1}}}^{{\mathtt{2}}}{\mathtt{\,\small\textbf+\,}}{\mathtt{5}}\right)}}$$
lets do it then
$${\frac{\left({\mathtt{4}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{5}}\right)}{\left({\mathtt{\,-\,}}{{\mathtt{1}}}^{{\mathtt{2}}}{\mathtt{\,\small\textbf+\,}}{\mathtt{5}}\right)}}$$
$$=\frac{20}{(1 + 5)}$$
$$=\frac{20}{6}$$
$$=\frac{5}{3}$$
now i hope you can do the rest yourself!
no Rosala
$$-1^2=-1$$
think about it, what is $$100-3^2$$
it is 100-9=91
the - sign is NOT squared :)
The rest of your answer is correct :)
Precisely.
$${\mathtt{\,-\,}}\left({{\mathtt{1}}}^{{\mathtt{2}}}\right) = -{\mathtt{1}}$$ but
$${\left(-{\mathtt{1}}\right)}^{{\mathtt{2}}} = {\mathtt{1}}$$
So $${\frac{\left({\mathtt{4}}{\mathtt{\,\times\,}}{\mathtt{5}}\right)}{\left({\mathtt{\,-\,}}{{\mathtt{1}}}^{{\mathtt{2}}}{\mathtt{\,\small\textbf+\,}}{\mathtt{5}}\right)}} = {\frac{{\mathtt{20}}}{\left({\mathtt{\,-\,}}{\mathtt{1}}{\mathtt{\,\small\textbf+\,}}{\mathtt{5}}\right)}} = {\frac{{\mathtt{20}}}{{\mathtt{4}}}} = {\mathtt{5}}$$
