1. **State the problem:** Evaluate the expressions:
1) $\left(\sqrt[3]{64}\right)^2$
2) $(-1000)^{\frac{1}{3}}$
2. **Recall the formulas and rules:**
- The cube root of a number $a$ is $a^{\frac{1}{3}}$.
- When raising a power to another power, multiply the exponents: $\left(a^m\right)^n = a^{mn}$.
- Cube roots of negative numbers are real and equal to the negative of the cube root of the positive number.
3. **Evaluate the first expression:**
$\left(\sqrt[3]{64}\right)^2 = \left(64^{\frac{1}{3}}\right)^2 = 64^{\frac{1}{3} \times 2} = 64^{\frac{2}{3}}$
Since $64 = 4^3$, then:
$$64^{\frac{2}{3}} = \left(4^3\right)^{\frac{2}{3}} = 4^{3 \times \frac{2}{3}} = 4^2 = 16$$
4. **Evaluate the second expression:**
$(-1000)^{\frac{1}{3}} = \sqrt[3]{-1000}$
Since $1000 = 10^3$, then:
$$\sqrt[3]{-1000} = -\sqrt[3]{1000} = -10$$
**Final answers:**
1) $16$
2) $-10$
