Question

-4/5 to the power of 2 times -3/50

Answer 1

=(-4/5)^2 * -3/50
square -4/5 first; remember -4/5^2 is the same as -4/5 * -4/5

=(-4/5 * -4/5) * -3/50
multiply -4 numerators; multiply 5 denominators

=(-4 * -4)/(5 * 5) * -3/50

=16/25 * -3/50
multiply numerators 16 & -3; multiply denominators 25 & 50

=(16 * -3)/(25 * 50)
= -48/1250

simplify by 2
= -24/625 (or -0.0384)


ANSWER: -24/625 (or -0.0384)
