simplify 8xy^-6 . 4w^-1 x^-2 . 2y^-2 w^8 use only positive exponents in your answer

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

what are these dots, multiplication?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes dots mean multiplication

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You'd usually use * for multiplication (64w^7y^4)/x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it says .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

incorrect answer

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

8xy^-6 × 4w^-1 × x^-2 × 2y^-2 w^8

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Do you know what happens to a negative exponent?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

becomes positive

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(64w^7)/(xy^8)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Typed in as 8xy^-6 * 4w^-1 * x^-2 * 2y^-2 w^8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ty

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No problem dude! I just typed it into Mathematica for you. If you want to do the same, try the wolframalpha web site.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

You can do it here, click "equation"!
