Substitute - 2 for x, 13 for y, and 5 for z.

- 2/729

Practice makes perfect
To evaluate the given expression for x = - 2, y = 13 and z = 5, we should substitute these values into the expression and simplify as much as possible.
x * y^(z + 1)
- 2 * ( 1/3)^(5 + 1)
- 2 * (1/3)^6
- 2 * 1^6/3^6
- 2 * 1/729
- 2/729
