Question

Can someone help me with this? I need answers quick!

Write the following expressions in simplified form.

1) 5^-1

2)3^-3

3) 4^4/4

4) 8^4/8^0

5) (-4)^8/(-4)^4

6) g^9/g^15



Complete the following equations.

1) 1/3^5 = 3^?

2) 1/-125 = (-5)^?

3) z^?/z^8 = z^-3

Answer 1

1) 5^-1 = 1/5^1 = 1/5 we can put down the number that has negative exponent

2)3^-3 = 1/3^3 = 1/ 27

3) 4^4/4 = 4^3 (we simplify by4) because 4x4x4x4 /4 = 4x4x4

4) 8^4/8^0 = 8^4 (because 8^0 = 1 )

5) (-4)^8/(-4)^4 = (-4)^4 (we can subtract the powers if we have the same number )


6) g^9/g^15 = g^-6 (subtract the power )



1) 1/3^5 = 3^?
3^ -5


1/-125 = (-5)^?
(-5)^-3



3) z^?/z^8 = z^-3

z^5
