Question 296097: I worked these two problema and wanted someone to check to see if I have the right answer for simplifying these equations.
(1-2)^3 + (-3)^2 / (2+10/2) -5 For this I got and answer of -10
10 + sqrt(16-9) / (4/2)^3 For this I got 1.5807
Do these seem correct?

(1-2)^3 + (-3)^2 / (2+10/2) -5
---
-1 + 9/(2+5) - 5
---
-6 + (9/7)
---
-42/7 + (9/7)
---
= -33/7
======================

10 + sqrt(16-9) / (4/2)^3 For this I got 1.5807
---
10 + sqrt(7)/8
---
is appoximately 10.3307....

(1-2)^3+(-3)^2/(2+10/2)-5
-1+9/7-5
8/2=4
---------------
The second one is correct
