Answer:

1.) The power in repeated multiplication form is: -8 × -8

-----> Since -8 is raised to the power of 2, it means that there should be two -8's being multiplied together.

2.) The value of the power is: 64

-----> Remember, a negative number times a negative number is equal to a positive number. Therefore, -8 × -8 = 64.
