DiKsa [7]3 years ago

ANSWER

{( - 2)}^{ - 3} =- \frac{1}{ 8}

EXPLANATION

We want to simplify;

{( - 2)}^{ - 3}

Recall that,

{a}^{ - m}  =  \frac{1}{ {a}^{m} }

{( - 2)}^{ - 3}  =  \frac{1}{{( - 2)}^{ 3}}

We multiply out to get,

{( - 2)}^{ - 3}  = \frac{1}{{- 2} \times  - 2 \times  - 2}

{( - 2)}^{ - 3}  =  \frac{1}{ - 8}

The correct choice is B.

Help me please!!!!! I need help with angles
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

<CFE = 28

<RPQ = 53

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

<CFE + 152 = 180

<CFE = 180 - 152

<CFE = 28

2)

Complementary means the angles add up to 90 so:

<RPQ + 37 = 90

<RPQ = 90 - 37

<RPQ = 53
