Question

Write the expression x^2 / x^-6 as a product of two factors and also as a negative exponent.

Answer 1

Writing the given expression as a product of two factors, we'll have;

`\begin{gathered} (x^2)/(x^(-6))=x^2\ast x^6=x^(2+6)=x^8 \\ \end{gathered}`

Now, writing it as a negative exponent, we'll have;
