Question

Simplify the equation

Answer 1

`\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{negative exponents} \\\\ a^(-n) \implies \cfrac{1}{a^n} \qquad \qquad \cfrac{1}{a^n}\implies a^(-n) \qquad \qquad a^n\implies \cfrac{1}{a^(-n)} \\\\ -------------------------------\\\\ \cfrac{x^0y^(-3)}{x^2y^(-1)}\implies \cfrac{1}{x^2y^(-1) y^3}\implies \cfrac{1}{x^2y^(-1+3)}\implies \cfrac{1}{x^2y^2}`
