Question

Anyone know the answer to this?

Answer 1

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

1/64

Discussion:

(2^3) ^ (-2)                       => 2^3 = 2 * 2 *2 = 8

= 8^(-2)                            => negative exp gives reciprocal of time to same

                                             power

= ( /8)^2                           => 8*8 = 64

= 1/64

NOTE; the answer shown selected in the diagram is incorrect as the correct result is a positive, NOT negative,  number. The second choice is the correct one.

Thank you,

MrB
