Hi all, I can find an exact example of this in the book. Can someone help me simplify an exponential expression? Here is one: y^-5/(y^3)^2. It looks like a fraction. The y^-5 is the top. Thank you for any help, Denise PS I know the answer as it's in the book but the "how to get there" is my problem:(
