5^3 is basically 5*5*5 and you do that twice because of the other ^

so you get 5*5*5*5*5*5 and since its a negative you always want the positive its 1/5*5*5*5*5*5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and the negative will never carry if you put that one over the negative =)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
do you get it @otaku789
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):

because you multiply 5 by itself 3 times
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then you do it another 2 but its negative so you would get -5*5*5*5*5*5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the last ^-2 is what gets people cuz they get 125 and want to square it and you would get none of the answers up there btw
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the ^-2 tells you to do what you did again but it turns the problem into a negative
OpenStudy (anonymous):
after that you have -5*-5 (rep 3 times)

after that you still have your negative you want to get rid of so put it as a fraction 1/ 5*5*5*5*5*5 and its positive so answer is correct

thxs
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no problem =)
