simplify (15x^2y^-3/10x^-3y)-2 is 9x^7/4y^5 correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3x^5/2y^2 - 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if I still have a negative -2 do I add the exponents?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is as far as it goes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I need to solve for all negatives

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the entire equations is raised to negative two

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh. raised. i thought it was just a minus. hold up a sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that'd be 4y^4/9x^10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the y wouldn't be y^8?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no instead of raise to -2, do the whole a denominator raised to 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then you'll see

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok ty!
