Question

pls help now plz On your own paper, please write a fraction with x^-5*y^4*z^18 in the numerator and x^-6*y^19*z^-2 in the denominator. Simplify this fraction.

Answer 1

I like gave the other dude the answr so I am chillin

Explanation:

thanks for da points doe g

Answer 2

xz^20 / y^15

Explanation:

x^-5*y^4*z^18

------------------------

x^-6*y^19*z^-2

We are dividing so we subtract the exponents

First simplify the x terms

x^ -5 / x^ -6 = x^( -5 - -6) = x^ (-5+6) = x

Then simplify the y terms

y^ 4 / y^ 19 = y^( 4 - 19) = y^ (-15)

Finally simplify the z terms

z^ 18 / z^ -2 = z^( 18 - -2) = z^ (18+2) = z^20

x y ^ -15 z^20

The positive exponent terms are in the numerator and the negative exponent terms are in the denominator ( they change to positive exponents)

xz^20 / y^15
