Question

1 2) Simplify x^-6 * x^2

Answer 1

hello

to solve this question, we can simply use laws of indicies on it

`a^m* a^n=a^(m+n)`

so going by that, we can use this template to solve our problem

`x^(-6)* x^2=x^(-6+2)=x^(-4)=(1)/(x^4)`

from the calculation above, the answer to this question is 1 / x^4 and this corresponds to option D
