Questions: Rewrite the following without an exponent. 2^-3

Transcript text: Rewrite the following without an exponent. \[ 2^{-3} \]

Solution

Step 1: Identify the type of exponent

Since the exponent \(n = -3\) is negative, we rewrite \(a^n = 2^-3\) as \( rac{1}{2^{-n}}\).

Step 2: Apply the exponent rules and calculate the result

The calculated result is 0.125.
