Final answer:
To evaluate the expression 4m^(-3) n^(-5) when m = 2 and n = 1, substitute the values of m and n into the expression. The answer is 0.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
To evaluate the expression 4m^(-3) n^(-5) when m = 2 and n = 1, we substitute the values of m and n into the expression.
Replacing m with 2 and n with 1, we get:
4(2)^(-3) (1)^(-5) = 4(1/8)(1) = 4/8 = 1/2 = 0.5
Therefore, the answer is d) 0.5.
