Q. Use multiplication to expand the expression below. Then compute.

\newline

(-6)^{3}

\newline

Press the

\times

button or type the * symbol on your keyboard to represent multiplication.

\newline

Answer:

Write as multiplication: We are given the expression $(-6)^{3}$ . To expand this expression, we need to write it as a multiplication of $-6$ by itself $3$ times, because the exponent indicates how many times the base is used as a factor. $\newline$ Expanded form: $(-6) \times (-6) \times (-6)$
Multiply first two factors: Now we compute the value of the expanded expression. We start by multiplying the first two factors. $\newline$ $(-6) \times (-6) = 36$
Multiply result by third factor: Next, we multiply the result from Step $2$ by the third factor. $\newline$ $36 \times (-6) = -216$
