Target: Write and compute expressions with powers.

Power: Used to express a product of a repeated factor. Powers consist of two parts, the base and the exponent.
Base: The repeated factor.
Exponent: Number of times the factor is repeated.
Squared: A number to the second power.
Cubed: A number to the third power.

If the base of a power is positive, the value of the power will always be positive.
If the base of a power is negative, the value of the power will be:• positive if the exponent is an even number.• negative if the exponent is an odd number.

Write each power in expanded form and find its value.

8·8 = 64
(−1)5
The exponent is odd so the answer will be negative. (−1)(−1)(−1)(−1)(−1) = −1
