Write (8a-^3) -2/3 in simplest form

Anna71 [15]

$(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} = \frac{a^2}{4}$

Solution:

Given that,

$(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}$

We have to write in simplest form

Use the following law of exponent

$(a^m)^n = a^{mn}$

Using this, simplify the given expression

$(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} = 8^{\frac{-2}{3}} \times a^{ -3 \times \frac{-2}{3}}\\\\Simplifying\ we\ get\\\\(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} = 8^{\frac{-2}{3}} \times a^2\\\\We\ know\ that\ 8 = 2^3\\\\Therefore\\\\(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} =2^3^{\frac{-2}{3}} \times a^2\\\\(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} =2^{-2} \times a^2\\\\(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} = \frac{a^2}{4}$

Thus the given expression is simplified

pls help will give brainliest Rena used the steps below to evaluate the expression (StartFraction (x Superscript negative 3 Base

kaheart [24]

Answer:

First "order of operations" mistake: step 2

First arithmetic mistake: step 4

Step-by-step explanation:

As we understand Rena's work, she wants to simplify ...

$\left(\dfrac{x^{-3}y^{-2}}{2x^4y^{-4}}\right)^{-3}$

for x = -1 and y = 2.

Her work seems to be ...

Step 1

$\text{Substitute $x=-1$ and $y=2$ into the expression}\\\\\left(\dfrac{(-1)^{-3}2^{-2}}{2(-1)^42^{-4}}\right)^{-3}\qquad\text{no error}$

Step 2

$\text{Simplify the parentheses}\\\\\left(\dfrac{2^4}{2(-1)^4(-1)^32^2}\right)^{-3}=\left(\dfrac{2^2}{2(-1)^7}\right)^{-3}\qquad\text{order of operations error}$

Step 3

$\text{Evaluate the power to a power}\\\\\dfrac{2^{-6}}{2^{-3}(-1)^{21}}\qquad\text{no error}$

Step 4

$\text{Use reciprocals and find the value}\\\\\dfrac{1}{2^32^6(-1)^{21}}=\dfrac{1}{8\cdot 64\cdot (-1)}=\dfrac{-1}{512}\qquad\text{error: $2^3$ is used instead of $2^{-3}$}$

_____

So, the first arithmetic error is in Step 4. However, the order of operations requires exponents be evaluated first. Doing that makes step 2 look like ...

$\left(\dfrac{-\dfrac{1}{4}}{2(1)\dfrac{1}{16}}\right)^{-3}=(-2)^{-3}\qquad\text{proper Step 2}$

We expect your answer is supposed to be Step 4.
