Someone help me please :c What is the simplified form of the expression? c^9 d^-7 / c^14 d^-10
you can change your equation to \[c^9*d^{10}/c^{14}*d^7\]
Sorry for the confusion I don't know how to make the little numbers
you can then subtract exponents on the like terms so c^9-c^14 and then d^10-d^7
so you should get c^-5 * d^3
c^9-c^14=c-5 and d^10-d^7= d3 ?
XD
c^-5 * d^3
which simplified is \[d^3/c^5\]
wow, that's all you have to do? so simple x.x
I'm going to save this conversation for any other questions I get that look like this. thanks so much
and if you want to check it you can always plug in numbers into the original and the simplified equation to see if you get the same answer
Oh and the exponent can be made by typing them into the equation generator at the bottom of the post box and use {} around the number if they are more than one digit
Ohh, okay, thanks I'll use that next time too =D
