Given:

The given expression is

[tex](-4)^{-3}[/tex]

To find:

The value of given expression.

Solution:

We have,

[tex](-4)^{-3}[/tex]

Applying the negative exponents rule, we get

[tex](-4)^{-3}=\dfrac{1}{(-4)^3}[/tex]     [tex][\because a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}][/tex]

Expanding the exponent, we get

[tex](-4)^{-3}=\dfrac{1}{(-4)(-4)(-4)}[/tex]  

[tex](-4)^{-3}=\dfrac{1}{-64}[/tex]  

[tex](-4)^{-3}=-\dfrac{1}{64}[/tex]  

The value of given expression is [tex]-\dfrac{1}{64}[/tex].

Therefore, the correct option is A.  

Answer:

a

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/64
