Match each exponential expression with its simplified expression.
Match Term Definition five to the fourth power raised to the negative eighth power A) one over five to the fourteenth power five to the eighth power times five to the fourth power B) five to the thirty‾second power five to the negative sixteenth power raised to the negative second power C) five to the twelfth power five to the negative sixteenth power times five to the second power D) one over five to the thirty‾second power
know that the rules like (x^2)^3 = x^(2*3) = x^6 x^2 * x^3 = x^(2+3) = x^5
so (5^4)^-8 = 5^(4^-8) = 5^-32 (5^8)(5^4) = 5^(8+4) = 5^12 (5^-16)^-2 = 5^(-16*-2) = 5^32 (5^-16)(5^2) = 5^(-16+2) = 5^(-14)
so it would be a
so (5^4)^-8 = 5^(4^-8) = 5^-32 <- D (5^8)(5^4) = 5^(8+4) = 5^12 <- C (5^-16)^-2 = 5^(-16*-2) = 5^32 <- B (5^-16)(5^2) = 5^(-16+2) = 5^(-14) <- A
Ok, next one
help?
five to the fourth power raised to the negative eighth power D five to the eighth power times five to the fourth power C five to the negative sixteenth power raised to the negative second power B five to the negative sixteenth power times five to the second power A
ARE YOU SURE ITS RIGHT?
yes.
this counts as a grade and this was the question i didnt get so thank you!
