what is 5 to the third power

well, to the power means the number, times itself, however many times the power is. for example, 2 to the fourth power would be 16. because 2 times two is four, that times two is eight, eight times two is sixteen. 2*2*2*2. so five to the three would be 5*5*5. I bet you can find the answer from there.

Can We Negative Square Num.? If yes, How?

Yes, we can use in imaginary numbers, where (-1)²=i , I think you're gonna see it at the pre-cauculus subject.

Good Luck guys I am hope you do well

thanks but I'm just here to answer peoples questions

What is imaginary numbers?

Good question! In the real number system, it is not possible to find the square root of a negative number, since no real number times itself is negative. This is because 0 times itself is 0, a negative number times itself is positive, and a positive number times itself is positive. To get around this problem, mathematicians invented the imaginary unit i, defined as the square root of -1. This produces an extended number system called the complex numbers, defined as numbers in the form a+bi where a and b are real numbers. For example, 8, 3 - 2i, and 5i are complex numbers. Also, 5i is an example of what is called a pure imaginary number, because 5i is just a real number times i. Have a blessed, wonderful day!

why do we need alphebat letter for math and why can we use them today or in the future

Nice question! Alphabet letters like x or y, fill in the missing space. This is an easy problem: 3 + x = 12 You can see the x substitutes for the blank! When you have a missing piece in your math problem like that, you can put a letter in it to help. Once you get the answer though, make sure to get rid of the letter unless it’s needed for the problem. Hope this helps ^-^

can7 to the power of 1 be possibale?

Yes, but it would just be seven, as 7^1 is just 7*1.

Squaring numbers

Google Classroom

Learn how to square basic numbers and make a connection between squaring and the area of a square.

Let's start by taking a look at an example evaluating start color #11accd, 3, end color #11accd squared:

start color #11accd, 3, end color #11accd, squared, equals, start color #11accd, 3, end color #11accd, times, start color #11accd, 3, end color #11accd, equals, start color #1fab54, 9, end color #1fab54

Here's a question to make sure you got that:

What does it mean to square a number?

Connection to a square

Finding start color #11accd, 3, end color #11accd, squared (read as "three squared") is the same as finding the area of a square with side length start color #11accd, 3, end color #11accd:
