2)
$-3x-13>-4$
$-3x-13+13>-4+13$
$-3x>9$
$\frac{-3x}{-3}<\frac{9}{-3}$ Note the change in the > here!
$x<-3$.

3) $\frac{-2}{-4}=\frac{-2}{2*-2}=s$.

What do the decimal points in the first problem mean?

-(-{-[-(-64)]})
5) $\frac{2010^{-4}410^9}{320010^{-3}}=\frac{320010^3410^9}{2010^4}$

The prime factorizations of these are:
$2010=2*3*5*67$
$410=2*5*41$
$320010=2*3*5*10667$

So:
$\frac{320010^3410^9}{2010^4}=\frac{(2^33^35^310667 ^3)(2^95^941^9)}{2^43^45^467^4}$
$\frac{2^{12}3^35^{12}41^910667^3}{2^43^45^467^4}= \frac{2^85^841^910667^3}{3*67^4}$

I'm not sure what else to do with it.

6) $-(-{-[-(-64)]})=(-1)^5*64=-64$.

Greatest Common Factor:
8cdw^5-10c^6dw^10
7) First combine the like terms:
$a-5ab+2a+ab+2ab$
$(a+2a)+(-5ab+ab+2ab)=3a-2ab$
Each term has a common a, so factor the a:
$3a-2ab=a(3-2b)$.

8) $8cdw^5-10c^6dw^{10}$
I don't know what you mean by "greatest common factor," I suspect you simply mean to factor the expression.
So, there is a common 2, one c, one d, and five w in each term:
$8cdw^5-10c^6dw^{10}=2cdw^5(4-5c^5w^5)$.

Solve:

x-10=49
9) $3x(2xy+4y)=3x*2xy+3x*4y=6x^2y+12xy$.

10)
$x-10=49$
$x-10+10=49+10$
$x=59$.

I'm not sure of what the decimal points are for but my best guess is:
$\frac{5}{2} \left (\frac{7}{8}+\frac{5}{3} \right)$
$\frac{5}{2} \left (\frac{7}{8} * \frac{3}{3} + \frac{5}{3} * \frac{8}{8} \right )$
$\frac{5}{2} \left ( \frac{21}{24} + \frac{40}{24} \right )$
$\frac{5}{2} \left ( \frac{21+40}{24} \right )$
$\frac{5}{2} \left ( \frac{61}{24} \right )$
$\frac{5*61}{2*24}=\frac{305}{48}$.
