(-1)³-1⁰

To evaluate the expression \((-1)³ - 1⁰\), we need to calculate each term separately: 1. Calculate \((-1)³\): \[ (-1)³ = -1 \times -1 \times -1 = -1 \] 2. Calculate \(1⁰\): \[ 1⁰ = 1 \quad (\text{Any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is 1}) \] Now, substitute these values back into the expression: \[ (-1)³ - 1⁰ = -1 - 1 = -2 \] Thus, the result is \(-2\).
