What's on the worksheet

  1. Evaluate, finding the base of each power first:
    -7^2 + 50(-7)^2 - 50-4^3 \div (-2)^3-(-2)^2 \cdot (-3)^2
  2. Evaluate, multiplying and dividing before adding and subtracting:
    6(−3) − (−20)40 ÷ (−5) · (−2) − 7−2 − 6 ÷ (−3) · 5(−4)(−5) − (−3)(8) + (−9)
  3. Evaluate, working out each grouping first:
    -[5 - (-2)]^2\dfrac{-20 - (-2)^3}{-6}[-3 - (4 - 6)^3] \div (-5)\dfrac{(-1)^5 - 3^2}{-2^2 + 9}-|-8 + 3^2| \cdot (-5)
  4. Find each expression's value for given negative values of m and n.
    (m - n)^2 - mmn^2 - n^3\dfrac{m^2 + n^3 - 6}{m + n}-(m - 2n)^3
  5. Word problem: where Yuna's token ends after a series of cards.
  6. Find the mistakes in Leah's work on an expression with a negative power.
  7. Place one pair of parentheses to make an expression equal three target values.
