Question

( −2 x^3) ^ 3 simplify

Answer 1

Your answer is -8x^9

Answer 2

Answer:

$-8x^9$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can split up the exponent into multiple products: $(-2x^3)^3=(-2)^3*(x^3)^3$.

We know that $(-2)^3=(-2)*(-2)*(-2)=-1*-1*-1*2*2*2=-1*8=-8$.

We also know that $(x^3)^3=x^{3*3}=x^9$.

So, our answer is $\boxed{-8x^9}$ and we're done!
