8^-3 using the property of negative integer exponents
To simplify 8^-3 using the property of negative integer exponents, recall that any non-zero number raised to a negative exponent is equal to the reciprocal of the number raised to the positive exponent.
For example, 8^-3 is the same as 1/(8^3).
So, 8^-3 = 1/(8^3) = 1/512.
To simplify 8^(-3) using the property of negative integer exponents, we can rewrite it as 1/8^3.
Step 1: Evaluate the base raised to the negative exponent.
8^-3 = 1/8^3
Step 2: Calculate the simplified expression.
1/8^3 = 1/512
Therefore, 8^(-3) simplifies to 1/512 using the property of negative integer exponents.
