(-m)^-3n if m=2 and n=-24
To find the value of (-m)^-3n when m = 2 and n = -24, we substitute these values into the expression.
Substituting m = 2 and n = -24:
(-m)^-3n = (-2)^-3(-24)
Now we calculate the value of (-2)^-3 = 1/(-2)^3:
1/(-2)^3 = 1/(-8) = -1/8
Substituting this back into the expression:
(-m)^-3n = -1/8(-24)
Now we calculate -1/8 * -24:
-1/8 * -24 = 3
Therefore, the value of (-m)^-3n when m = 2 and n = -24 is 3.
