<u>L</u><u>a</u><u>w</u><u> </u><u>o</u><u>f</u><u> </u><u>E</u><u>x</u><u>p</u><u>o</u><u>n</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u>t</u>

\displaystyle \large{ {a}^{ - n}  =  \frac{1}{ {a}^{n} } }

Compare the terms.

\displaystyle \large{ {a}^{ - n}  =   {( - 2)}^{ - 3} }

Therefore, a = -2 and n = 3. From the law of exponent above, we receive:

\displaystyle \large{ {( - 2)}^{ - 3}  =  \frac{1}{ {( - 2)}^{ 3} } }

<u>E</u><u>x</u><u>p</u><u>o</u><u>n</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>D</u><u>e</u><u>f</u><u>.</u> (For cubic)

\displaystyle \large{ {a}^{3}  = a \times a \times a }

Factor (-2)^3 out.

\displaystyle \large{ {( - 2)}^{ - 3}  =  \frac{1}{( - 2) \times ( - 2) \times ( - 2)}}

(-2) • (-2) = 4 | Negative × Negative = Positive.

\displaystyle \large{ {( - 2)}^{ - 3}  =  \frac{1}{4 \times ( - 2)}}

4 • (-2) = -8 | Negative Multiply Positive = Negative.

\displaystyle \large{ {( - 2)}^{ - 3}  =  \frac{1}{  - 8}}

If either denominator or numerator is in negative, it is the best to write in the middle or between numerator and denominators.

Hence,

\displaystyle \large \boxed{ {( - 2)}^{ - 3}  =  -  \frac{1}{  8}}

The answer is - 1 / 8

P-value test and Ctitical Value test are identical. P-value and Critical value are two different names for the same steps. They
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Option B - False

Step-by-step explanation:

Critical value is a point beyond which we normally reject the null hypothesis. Whereas, P-value is defined as the probability to the right of respective statistic which could either be Z, T or chi. Now, the benefit of using p-value is that it calculates a probability estimate which we will be able to test at any level of significance by comparing the probability directly with the significance level.

For example, let's assume that the Z-value for a particular experiment is 1.67, which will be greater than the critical value at 5% which will be 1.64. Thus, if we want to check for a different significance level of 1%, we will need to calculate a new critical value.

Whereas, if we calculate the p-value for say 1.67, it will give a value of about 0.047. This p-value can be used to reject the hypothesis at 5% significance level since 0.047 < 0.05. But with a significance level of 1%, the hypothesis can be accepted since 0.047 > 0.01.

Thus, it's clear critical values are different from P-values and they can't be used interchangeably.
