Here are the evaluations for each expression:

Part a· 2 steps

Evaluate 2m−1−2m−22m−1−2m+2\frac{2^{m-1} - 2^{m-2}}{2^{m-1} - 2^{m+2}}

  1. Factor out the smallest power of 2 from the numerator and denominator.

    Numerator: 2m−2(2(m−1)−(m−2)−1)=2m−2(21−1)=2m−2(1)=2m−22^{m-2}(2^{(m-1)-(m-2)} - 1) = 2^{m-2}(2^1 - 1) = 2^{m-2}(1) = 2^{m-2}
    Denominator: 2m−1(1−2(m+2)−(m−1))=2m−1(1−2m+2−m+1)=2m−1(1−23)=2m−1(1−8)=2m−1(−7)2^{m-1}(1 - 2^{(m+2)-(m-1)}) = 2^{m-1}(1 - 2^{m+2-m+1}) = 2^{m-1}(1 - 2^3) = 2^{m-1}(1 - 8) = 2^{m-1}(-7)

  2. Simplify the expression.

    2m−2−7⋅2m−1=−17⋅2(m−2)−(m−1)=−17⋅2−1=−17⋅12=−114\frac{2^{m-2}}{-7 \cdot 2^{m-1}} = -\frac{1}{7} \cdot 2^{(m-2)-(m-1)} = -\frac{1}{7} \cdot 2^{-1} = -\frac{1}{7} \cdot \frac{1}{2} = -\frac{1}{14}

    The evaluated expression is −114\boxed{-\frac{1}{14}}.

Part b

33x−23^{3x-2}

Evaluate 310+x×273x−437x\frac{3^{10+x} \times 27^{3x-4}}{3^{7x}}

  1. Express all terms with base 3.

    273x−4=(33)3x−4=33(3x−4)=39x−1227^{3x-4} = (3^3)^{3x-4} = 3^{3(3x-4)} = 3^{9x-12}
  2. Substitute and apply exponent rules for multiplication and division.

    310+x×39x−1237x=3(10+x)+(9x−12)37x=310x−237x\frac{3^{10+x} \times 3^{9x-12}}{3^{7x}} = \frac{3^{(10+x) + (9x-12)}}{3^{7x}} = \frac{3^{10x-2}}{3^{7x}}
  3. Simplify the expression.

    3(10x−2)−7x=33x−23^{(10x-2) - 7x} = 3^{3x-2}

    The evaluated expression is 33x−2\boxed{3^{3x-2}}.
