Question

(-1/64)^(-1/3) is equals to -4 right?

Answer 1

(-1/64)^(-1/3)
is a complex number,
are you studying complex numbers topic?

Answer 2

we consider \[i=\sqrt{-1}\]
in case of sq. root
but what about\[\sqrt[3]{-1}\]
in case of cube root?
what we call it as?
@hartnn

Answer 3

there is no specific name for that as such

Answer 4

it says to evaluate the expression. Is it -4 the ans?

Answer 5

do you have the options/choices?

Answer 6

no the ans. should contain \[\sqrt[3]{-1}\]

Answer 7

a. -1/4 b. 4 c.262,144 d. -4

Answer 8

*sigh*
then they are considering
\((-1)^{2/3} = 1\)
which is not true ...
from the options, i would go with -4 only...

Answer 9

ans. may be \[4*\sqrt[3]{-1}\]

Answer 10

\(-4 (-1)^{2/3}\)
is the actual answer :)
or
\(4\angle 60\)

Answer 11

oops
\(4 \angle -60 \)

Answer 12

i think\[\sqrt[3]{-1}=\sqrt[3]{(-1)(-1)(-1)}=-1\]
if this is correct, the answer is -4. @hartnn @bless

Answer 13

please see to it

Answer 14

cube root of -1 is again complex :)
\(1\angle 60\)
