Answer 1

To simplify the expression \((5−6)−23\):

1. Calculate \(5 - 6\):
\[
5 - 6 = -1
\]

2. Then, subtract \(23\) from \(-1\):
\[
-1 - 23 = -24
\]

So, the expression simplifies to \(-24\).

Now let's look at the responses provided to find an equivalent expression:

1. \(154\)
2. \( \frac{1}{5^4} \)
3. \(5^4\)
4. \(5^{-4}\)
5. \(5^{-203}\)

None of these responses equate to \(-24\). Therefore, there’s no equivalent expression among the choices provided. Please double-check the multiple choice options or re-evaluate for more context, as none of these match \(-24\).
