Question

I need help with simplifying

Answer 1

\[\frac{ 4u^4v^-2 }{ u^-4}\]

Answer 2

Is that (4u^4v^-2)/u^-4?

Answer 3

yes it is. i hate how it is so difficult to see

Answer 4

Ok. I like to make all exponents positive first. That would make it
(4u^4u^4)/v^2
Make sense so far?

Answer 5

yes it does

Answer 6

Now you can combine the u's by adding the exponents.
4u^8/v^2

Answer 7

Done :)

Answer 8

Answer 9
