PLEASE HELP!!!! Simplify the expression.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\left( \frac{ -1^{5} }{ -2^{-3} } \right)^{2}\]

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

-1^5 =-1

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

-2^-3= -1/8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So it would be 1/64?

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

Divide so becomes reciprocal so it is 8 = (8)^2

OpenStudy (ksaimouli):

Don't forget reciprocal
