Answer 1

Your answer should be -2
Use PEMDAS if confused!
Parentheses
Exponent
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction.
You would first calculate the number in between your parentheses which would give you -1. Then do -1 to the power of 4(-1^4) which still gives you -1 and then multiply it by 2 which should give you your answer -2. :)
Hope this helps.
