simplify (-64)^{1/3}

Solution

simplify

(- 64)^{\frac{1}{3}}

Solution

- 4

Solution steps

(- 64)^{\frac{1}{3}}

Apply exponent rule:

(- a)^{\frac{1}{n}} = - (a)^{\frac{1}{n}},

if

n

is odd

(- 64)^{\frac{1}{3}} = - 6 4^{\frac{1}{3}}

= - 6 4^{\frac{1}{3}}

Factor the number:

64 = 4^{3}

= - (4^{3})^{\frac{1}{3}}

Apply exponent rule:

(a^{b})^{c} = a^{b c}, a \geq 0

(4^{3})^{\frac{1}{3}} = 4^{3 \cdot \frac{1}{3}}

= - 4^{3 \cdot \frac{1}{3}}

3 \cdot \frac{1}{3} = 1

= - 4^{1}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{1} = a

4^{1} = 4

= - 4
