easy points
why isn't m^3=512 ±8, but just 8? I went onto 2 diff websites and the answer book (yes i have an answer book) and it says 8.
Because of that, when do you add ± in questions like the ones on top? (take into account units and no units, thanks)
i'm confusion

Also, why do you need (x) in questions like (-7)^3? I feel like there is no point, especially when it is just one problem.
