what is the total of a negative three times three cubed?

Answer 1

well, you take, -3 x 27

Answer 2

Its negative 81.

-3 x 3 cubed
You would cube the positive 3 first, (3x3x3=27), then you would times the negative 3 to 27, (-3x27= -81)..and you're done.

Answer 3

Negative 81.

Answer 4

In order to answer that, we need to see it in writing, or you need to be more specific about the placement of the operators.

Do you mean:

A. (-3)*(3^3) or
B. ((-3) * 3)^3

For A, you have (3^3) = 27 * (-3) = (-81)
For B, you have (-9)^3 = -279

Or was the original problem something totally different than A or B?

Good Luck!

Answer 5

its -243 i think, because -3x3=-9, and -9 cubed is lets see here... -9x-9=27x-9= -243 does that make sense i hope that helps! im gonna be in geometry this year, and i took Algebra II last year so ya, but depending how you say it could also be -81, because -3x3cubed which is -3x3x3x3 is -81 so ya, and dont pay attention to other ppll who bash you, get help where u can!

Answer 6

-3 x 27

Answer 7

depends. if it's written like this -3 * 3^3 the answer is -81 but if it's written like this (-3 * 3) ^ 3 the answer is -729. Parentheses are important

Answer 8

It depends on how the problem is written.

If the problem is -3*(3)^3, then the answer is -81.

If the problem is (-3*3)^3, then the answer is -729.

Answer 9

it depends on where the parentheses lie. if your question is (-3 * 3) ^ 3, then it's (-9)^3, which is -243. if it's -3 * (3)^3, then it's -81. remember, always work inside the parentheses first. it's called order of operations, have a looksie: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

Answer 10

If I understand you question correcly:

- (3*3^3) = -(3*[3*3*3]) = -(3[27]) = -(81) = -81.
