heres a rule: x^-1=1/x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
im lost on this one
OpenStudy (anonymous):
basically on this problem well just flip the fraction to make the exponent positive
OpenStudy (anonymous):
try to simplify 6xy/y=?
hartnn (hartnn):
is the question \(\huge (\frac{6xy}{y})^{-3}\)
then u can cancel out the y in numerator and denominator and write that as
\(\huge ({6x}{})^{-3}\)

hartnn (hartnn):
that has negative exponent, to make it positive , we would use \(\huge a^{-n}=\frac{1}{a^n}\)
to get
\(\huge (6x)^{-3}=\frac{1}{(6x)^3}\)
did u get this @RenaeMonroe
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
hartnn (hartnn):
good, then that would be your final answer.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
6x^3
hartnn (hartnn):
noes
1/(6x)^3
\(\huge \frac{1}{(6x)^3}\)
