Answer:

First Space: 49

Second Space: 33

Third Space:-99

Fourth Space: -99

Fifth Space: 10

Sixth Space: -89

Step-by-step explanation:

First Space: for the first space you would do -7 times -7 because it is squared so you would get 49 because a negative and a negative and a negative make a positive.

Second Space: For the second space you have to do 49-16 because you already found the first space and the answer would be 33.

Third Space: For the third space you would do the answer you got from the second space which is 33 and multiply by -3 because -3 is outside the brackets. The answer would be -99.

Fourth Space: You would just put the same thing as the third space and put -99.

Fifth space: To find the fifth space you have to do 4 ÷ 2/5. To find this part you have to do 4 times the reciprocal (when you flip the fraction) and you would get 4 times 5/2. Then you can cross the denominator (bottom of the fraction) and make the 4 a 2 because 4 ÷ 2=2. Next you do 2 times 5 and get 10 as a answer.

Sixth Space: For the final answer you would use the fourth and fifth space. You would do -99+10 which is -89.

Hopefully this helps :)
