Question

type the correct answer in the box. use numerals instead of words.

what is the value of this expression when (a = -5) and (b = -1)?

\\\frac{2a^3}{b}\\

for (a = -5) and (b = -1), the expression has a value of .

Explanation:

⚡ Using what you learned: Evaluating Expressions

Step 1: Identify the expression and values

The expression shown in the image is:

$$ \frac{\sqrt[3]{a^3}}{b} $$

We are given:

$$ a = -5 $$

$$ b = -1 $$

Step 2: Substitute the values

Replace \( a \) with \(-5\) and \( b \) with \(-1\):

$$ \frac{\sqrt[3]{(-5)^3}}{-1} $$

Step 3: Simplify the expression

First, evaluate the numerator:

$$ \sqrt[3]{(-5)^3} = -5 $$

Now, divide by the denominator:

$$ \frac{-5}{-1} = 5 $$

Answer:

5
