What is (-m)^-3n if m = 2 and n = -24? 1. 3 2. -3 3. 4 4. -4 I give out medals.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait, wrong step Anyways, you have to do -2^-3 first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So what is -2^-3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

After that, you multiply it by -24

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2^-3 is -8 -8 x -24 = 192 ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2^-3 isn't -8 :P Try again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh it's 6..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2^3 = -8 though, but we are solving for -2^-3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And you said to multiply it by -24 ? I did and it's a big negative.

Can somebody help me with this?? I'll give out a medal to whomever helps with the answer!
