Question

(4 to the -1 over 3)-2

Answer 1

so\[\frac{ 4^{-1} }{ 3^{-2 }}\]

Answer 2

the rule of exponents is if it is a negative, it flips to the reciprocal.
then 4^-1 goes to 1/4^1, numerators go to denominators and visaversa

Answer 3

\[\frac{ 4^{-1} }{ 3 }-2\] = \[\frac{ 1 }{ 4*3 }-2\]

Answer 4

4 to the -1 over three and in parentheses and all to the -2

Answer 5

yeah if that is what's asked then that is right.

Answer 6

but the rule still applies

Answer 7

\[(\frac{ 4^{-1} }{ 3 })^{-2}\]=\[(\frac{ 1 }{ 4*3 })^{-2}\]=\[(\frac{ 1 }{ 12 })^{-2}\]=\[(\frac{ 12 }{ 1 })^{2}\]=144

Answer 8

fmadson, i would learn to type the equation in numbers how it is to look, it would help everyone involved

Answer 9

ok thanks
