x^2 y^-3 z^3 ______________?? simpliy x^4 y^2 z^4
ok
Remember that when you have to values with the same base, and you divide them, it's equivalent to subtracting the exponents. First, we can break it up like this: \[\frac{ x^2 y^{-3} z^3 }{ x^4 y^2 z^4 }=\frac{ x^2 }{ x^4 } + \frac{ y^{-3} }{ y^2 } + \frac{ z^3 }{ z^4 }\]
Sorry those plus signs should be multiplication signs between the fractions
But now, you can go piece by piece, remembering that dividing can be done by subtracting the exponents
look at the file
so whats the answer @vinnv226
Go piece by piece. I'll show you how to do the x piece. Since we have the same base we can subtract the exponents: \[\frac{ x^2 }{ x^4 } = x^{2-4}=x^{-2}\] Now do the same thing with the other pieces
y^-1 z^-1?? @vinnv226
The z piece is right but the y piece isn't. It should be y^(-3 -2)=?
y^-6
@vinnv226??
he is not coming back
well is this correct @smartguy1124
umm
let me check
-3 -2 = -5, not -6
its y^-4
but u were close @broderick365
y^(-3) / y^(2) is going to be y^(-5), not y^(-4)
