Q. Use multiplication to expand the expression below. Then compute.(−2)3Press the × button or type the * symbol on your keyboard to represent multiplication.Expanded form:Answer:
Identify Base and Exponent: Identify the base and the exponent.In (−2)3, −2 is the base raised to the exponent 3.Base: −2Exponent: 3
Choose Expanded Form: Choose the expanded form of (−2)3(−2)3 means −2 is multiplied by itself 3 times.Expanded Form: −2×−2×−2
Compute Result: Compute the expanded form of (−2)3(−2)3=−2×−2×−2=4×−2=−8
