Answer:

The required exponent is
y^{(1)/(4)}

Explanation:

Consider the provided expression.


\frac{1}{y^{-(1)/(4)}}

We need to write the above expression into positive exponent form.

Now apply the exponent rule:
(1)/(a^(-b))=a^b

By using the above rule we can rewrite the above expression as shown:


\frac{1}{y^{-(1)/(4)}}=y^{(1)/(4)}

Hence, the required exponent is
y^{(1)/(4)}
