because -4*-4*-4 = -64

also, a cube root is a power of 1/3

So, you can put (-64) ^ (1/3) into your calculator and get the answer.

now, you can tell me, what is the lowest common multiple?

You have m because m is the slope
so
y=-3x+b

You also know that when x=4 y=0 so you can plug these values into the equation to come up with the correct value of b

Then you just write the equation with the number values of m and b.

It cannot be simplified.
It is an irrational number and cannot be expressed exactly as a fraction or as a decimal.

You can use your calculator to estimate it if you wish.

(2x)^2(4y)^2 this is a bit ambiguous but I going to take it to be

(2x)^2 * (4y)^2 =

= 2^2 * x^2 * 4^2 * y^2

= 4 * x^2 * 16 * y^2

= 64 x^2 y^2

You have just one non-zero number in front of the point 5.046 (you can put the last zero if you want it doesn't make any difference).
You count the number of places that you moved the point - remembering that any whole number has an invisible point at the end. the number of places that you move the point is the power
If the number is little (less than one ) the sign of the power will by negative. If it is a big number it will be positive.
Now you should be able to do it.
If you respond with the answer I will tell you it it is correct.
