I can help you solve this.. First, look at the quantity of the exponent at the end: 45. Then, look at the quantity of the first exponent: -9 Now, the middle exponent is: b To find b, you will need to find which of the numbers in your choices multiplied by -9= 45. Which one do you think it is? (:

Also note that a negative number times a negative number equals a positive number.

>.< to confusing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

um

whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):

Oh, okay. Let me try to make it simpler by including a diagram. (:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do i add the exponents

whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):

No, you multiply them.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so -405?

whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):

No, not quite. If you take the first exponent, which is -9, what do you multiply that by to get 45?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-5

whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):

Yes, that is correct! *^.^*

OpenStudy (anonymous):
