Answer:
The answer is -343.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a term doesn't have an exponent, it's considered that the exponent is 1 (so basically, (-7)² x (-7)^1.
Multiply the terms with the same base (by adding the exponents - (-7)²+1<- (as the exponential value) (couldn't find the sign so sorry.)
Add the numbers: (-7)³
A negative base raised to an odd power equals a negative: -7³
Write the problem out: -(7 x 7 x 7).
Multiply: -343
