CAN U HELP ME SIMPLIFY THIS
myininaya (myininaya):
Do you know law of exponents?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no
myininaya (myininaya):
\[x^n x^m=x^{n+m}\]
\[\frac{x^n}{x^m}=x^{n-m}\]
\[\frac{1}{x^{-n}}=x^n\]
\[x^{-n}=\frac{1}{x^n}\]
\[(x^ry^t)^s=x^{rs}y^{ts}\]
Here are a few laws...
You tell me which one you think applies here.

the first one ??
myininaya (myininaya):
Simplify means they don't want any negative exponents...
Which law will help us do this
And no we can't use the first one because the bases aren't the same.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the last one
OpenStudy (anonymous):
??
myininaya (myininaya):
Do any of the laws above have negative exponents?

You can't add the exponents unless the a's and b's are stated to be constants.

Remember that for example\[\large x^5 y^{-5} = \dfrac{x^5}{y^5}\]
