Question

What is -5 to the fourth power

Answer 1

Answer: -20

Step-by-step explanation: multiply -5 and 4

Answer 2

Answer:

I'm pretty sure it's -625

Step-by-step explanation:

-5 to the fourth power is written like this:

-(5^4)

So all you need to do is 5x5x5x5

5x5 equals 25 so then all you have to do is 25x25

After solving it out on a piece of paper, it should be 625

But because they should be in parenthesis, all you need to do is add the negative symbol to 625 which gives you the answer of -625

Hope this helps I'm not really the best at this since I'm in like middle school. (and I'm new to using brainly)
