Question

trying to simplify this expression (x^2y^6)1/2 over (-2xy)^3

Answer 1

-( (y^3) / (16x) )

Answer 2

Not understanding how you got this answer.

Answer 3

\[ (x^2 y^6)^\frac12 \] simplifies to \[ x y^3 \]

Answer 4

\[ (-2xy)^3 = -8x^3y^3 \]

Answer 5

and \[ \frac{xy^3}{-8x^3y^3} = \frac{1}{-8x^2} \]

Answer 6

so that would be your answer
