PLEASE HELP ASAP EASY 6th grade 30 pts


describe how to rewrite a power with a positive exponent so that the exponent is in the denominator.

Respuesta :

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!


Discussion:

Consider this example:

3 ^ 4 = 3 * 3 * 3 *3 = 81

but it also equals

(1/3) ^ (-4)  =   1 / ( 1/3)^4 = 1 / (1/81) = 81

The exponent appears in the denominator.  Is this what you meant?


Thank you,

MrB
