Question

What is the value of the expression?
(-4) to the 4th power

Answer 1

These ones are a bit more tricky, as a negative multiplied by a negative is a positive,

Answer 2

\[(-4)^4\] You do mean this right?

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4

Okay, so we would start of like so, -4 x -4= 16, because - x - = +, then we would do 16 x -4 = -64 because a postive multiplied by a negative is a negative,

Answer 5

Where can you go from there?

Answer 6

then -64 times 4

Answer 7

-64 times -4, always remember you're multiplying by a negative,

Answer 8

So that would give you +256, again, because - x - = +

Answer 9

right.
