Question

Can anyone help me with this problem

Answer 1

In order to do this you first have to solve the parenthesis. Why because the pemdas tells you so, first parenthesis then exponents then multiplication then division then addition and then subtraction. So first subtract 7 from 9 to get (2)^-3 now multiply 2 3 times. -2*-2*-2 to get -8

Hope this helps
