We are given the function: g(n) = [tex]3 (\frac{7}{5} )^n[/tex]
We need to find what g(-3) equals.
What the question is asking is what is the resulting value after you plug in -3 as n to the function. Meaning you replace the n that is in the function with -3.
For this problem we can keep the fraction as it is (unless you are permitted to use a calculator... if that is the case then just plug all that into a calculator) and keep going to the exponent.
Negative exponents make fractions FLIP. So our fraction will look like this: [tex](\frac{7}{5})^{-3} = (\frac{5}{7})^{3} [/tex]
Now that we have it without the negative exponent we need to distribute the cubed power to each number in the fraction (which is essentially the same as saying this: [tex] \frac{5}{7}* \frac{5}{7}* \frac{5}{7} [/tex])
