What is (−3)(−3)(−3)(−3) expressed using exponents?(1 point) Responses
The expression (-3)(-3)(-3)(-3) can be expressed as -(3^4) using exponents.
To express the expression (-3)(-3)(-3)(-3) using exponents, we can write it as (-3)^4.
To express the expression (-3)(-3)(-3)(-3) using exponents, you need to understand that a negative number raised to an odd power remains negative.
So, let's break down the expression step by step:
(-3)(-3)(-3)(-3) = (-1 * 3)(-1 * 3)(-1 * 3)(-1 * 3)
Now, we can express each factor using exponents:
(-1 * 3)(-1 * 3)(-1 * 3)(-1 * 3) = (-1)^4 * 3^4
The exponent 4 arises because we have four factors of -1.
Therefore, (-3)(-3)(-3)(-3) expressed using exponents is (-1)^4 * 3^4.
