Question

5x^-2y^10 over 2x^-1(-3x^-3y^-1)^-2 please explain

Answer 1

with all the powers symbols it's not so cleear

Answer 2

\[\frac{5x^{-2}y^{10}}{2x^{-1}(-3x^{-3}y^{-1})^{-2}}\] ?

Answer 3

the problem is simplfied to

\[(5x^{-2} y^10)/(-6x^5y^{-1})\]

now use the index law for division... subtract the powers

-5/6 x^-7y^2

so the final answer is \[(-5y^2)/(6x^7)\]
