Identify Base and Exponent: Identify the base and the exponent in the expression (5−32)−3.Base: −32Exponent: −3
Express −32 as Term: Express −32 as a term raised to the power of 5.−32=−(2×2×2×2×2)=−(25)
Rewrite Using Fifth Root: Rewrite the expression using the fifth root and the negative exponent.(1)/((5−32)(−3))= (1)/((−(25))(1/5))(−3)= (1)/((−2)(−3))
Simplify Negative Exponent: Simplify the negative exponent by taking the reciprocal. (1)/((−2)−3)= (−2)3
Calculate Value: Calculate the value of (−2)3.(−2)3=−2×−2×−2=−8
