Transcript text: Evaluate the radical expression. Express your answer as an integer, simplified fraction, or a decimal rounded to two decimal places. Indicate "Not a Real Number".
\[
\sqrt[3]{-1000}
\]
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Identify the Radical Expression
The given expression is a cube root:
\[
\sqrt[3]{-1000}
\]
Step 2: Simplify the Cube Root
The cube root of a number \(a\) is a number \(b\) such that \(b^3 = a\). We need to find a number \(b\) such that:
\[
b^3 = -1000
\]
Step 3: Calculate the Cube Root
Since \((-10)^3 = -1000\), the cube root of \(-1000\) is \(-10\).
