simplify ((-1)/2)^{-3}

Solution

simplify

(\frac{- 1}{2})^{- 3}

Solution

- 8

Solution steps

(\frac{- 1}{2})^{- 3}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{- b} = \frac{1}{a ^{b}}

(\frac{- 1}{2})^{- 3} = \frac{1}{( \frac{- 1}{2} ) ^{3}}

= \frac{1}{( \frac{- 1}{2} ) ^{3}}

(\frac{- 1}{2})^{3} = - \frac{1}{8}

= \frac{1}{- \frac{1}{8}}

\frac{1}{- \frac{1}{8}} = - 8

= - 8
