Question Evaluate the expression (3)3(-3)^{3}.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions
1. We are calculating the cube of a negative number, which is (3)3(-3)^3.
2. The cube of a number aa is given by a3=a×a×aa^3 = a \times a \times a.

STEP 2

We will use the definition of exponentiation to calculate the cube of 3-3.
(3)3=(3)×(3)×(3)(-3)^3 = (-3) \times (-3) \times (-3)

STEP 3

First, calculate the product of the first two factors.
(3)×(3)=9(-3) \times (-3) = 9

STEP 4

Now, multiply the result from STEP_3 by the third factor.
9×(3)9 \times (-3)

STEP 5

Calculate the final product.
9×(3)=279 \times (-3) = -27
The result of (3)3(-3)^{3} is 27-27.
