-4/5 + (- 1/3)

= -4/5 + - 1/3

If 2 signs (+ or -) are so close together that you can put a circle around them without anything else inside the circle
then
if the signs are the same, replace with a plus
if the signs are different, replace with a minus.

= -4/5 - 1/3

then, either find a common denominator and solve that way or just do it on your calculator.
If doing by hand,
consider -8-6 = -(8+6) = -14

Maybe you mean
what is the cube root of -125 in which case the answer is -5 because -5*-5*-5 = -125

there is a cube root button on your calculator or you can use.
Also a cube root is a power of 1/3
so
(-125)^(1/3) should also give you the correct answer.

It is 3 ^5(root5)i

BUT at high school level it is fair to say that the square root of a negative number does not exist so there is no answer.

I'm sorry but this question doesn't make sense.

Parallel to y=3x-4 and through the point (0,5)

The gradient of y=3x-4 is 3
any line parallel must also have a gradient of 3
Now there is more than one way to continue;
you could just say y=3x + b
sub in (0,5) to find b
then just write the equation answer down.

Is this enough help?

Speed of sound at sea level is approx 340.29 m/s
340.29m/s * 5.6sec = 1905.624m (the secs cancel out)
1.906km

there is about 5/8 mile in one km (a mile is further than a km)
1.906 * (5/8) = 744 miles

your answer isn't correct

I think the question is
y = (x-1) (rootx - 2)

y= x(rootx - 2) - 1(rootx - 2)
=xrootx - 2x - rootx +2

now, rootx = x to the power of 1/2
xrootx = x ¹x ^1/2 = x ^(1+1/2) = x ^(3/2)
so
y= x ^(3/2) -2x -x ^(1/2) + 2
