Already tried everything, mantissa, exponent, just do not know how to solve the problem, I would love to be able to understand it! 5 (1-e ^ -0.212765957) = e = 2.71 ^ = -0.212765957 here is my biggest question!

I am new in potentiation so weird, with 0.2127 decimal ... honestly do not know! I need very much help!
 
You need a calculator to compute it. I used the google search bar which pulls up Googles online calculator. This is not something that you'd do through simple arithmetic. You'd need to convert e^0.2127... to log form, do the math and convert it back to get the answer you need. Then plug your answer back into the original equation to get the final answer for your problem.

Thank you, we are humbled by your compliments.
 
I speak in regard to service and military cooperation! only that!
There was no intention humiliation! if I said something wrong! pardon!
I have no such intention, on the contrary, I would like to live in the US:doh:
 
Klaatu, O Dia Que a Terra Parou (1951)
Keanu Reeves

This video is very spectacular,
quite the contrary I am a big fan of his country,
Someone getting against north america, is to declare fight to Brazilians who are residing in the US!

Humbled and humiliation are two different things.

When someone says "we are humbled" it means that we are greatly honored by your compliment but feel we don't deserve it.

You compliment was very good and I was really honored to reply.

Here's more on the term:

Actually the 1951 version was better in a lot of respects. It starred Michael Rennie as Klaatu and was against nuclear proliferation.

The more recent remake lost a lot of it making Klaatu much darker with a ecological mission to destroy all of humanity to save the Earth from death.
