Question

I need the answer please. Because I think i got mine wrong

Answer 1

a. 1 / 8^2 b. 3^3 c 1 / 6^4.

Explanation:

We used the following rules x^-n = 1/x^n,

1 / x^-n = x^n

and x^n * x^m = x^(n+m).

Answer 2

see explanation

Explanation:

Using the rules of exponents

•
`a^(-m)` ⇔
`(1)/(a^(m) )`

•
`a^(0)` = 1

•
`a^(m)` ×
`a^(n)` ⇔
`a^((m+n))`

Given

(a)

`8^(-2)` =
`(1)/(8^(2) )`

(b)

`(1)/(3^(-3) )` = 3³

(c)

`6^(-12)` ×
`6^(8)` ×
`6^(0)`

=
`6^((-12+8))` × 1

=
`6^(-4)`

=
`(1)/(6^(4) )`
