In this problem, we're being asked to evaluate the given expression when x is equal to negative 3, or excuse me, when x is equal to negative 1 3rd.
00:07
So in order to do this, the first thing we're going to do is substitute negative 1 3rd in place of x.
00:12
So we'll have 12, then inside parentheses, we'll have that minus, and then i usually substitute expressions in by putting them in parentheses.
00:20
So we'll have negative 1 3rd, all being raised to the 3rd power.
00:24
So now we just need to evaluate using the order of operations.
00:27
Well, inside our preemphasies, we have a negative getting multiplied by negative one -third.
00:32
So that will be positive one -third.
00:34
So we'll have 12 times one -third raised to the third power.
00:38
Next, we need to evaluate our exponents.
00:40
So we have one -third to the third power.
00:42
That's one -third times one -third times one -third...
