\[\frac{ b^7 }{ b^2 }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
subtract the exponents to divide them.
OpenStudy (jordanloveangel):
1 byte5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so it's b^5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
b^7*b^2 = b^9 if its divide its minus not add

OpenStudy (jordanloveangel):
is b^9 if u divide
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So if it's asking to divide then you add the exponents?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Its b^5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
if its asking to divide you subtract them
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes so it would be b^5

Guys don't just give the answer without explaining it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Well then it's b^5 and not b^9...
OpenStudy (jordanloveangel):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I know if you looked at my explantion I used the multiplication symbol
OpenStudy (anonymous):
And I said b^5 a while ago but then someone mentioned b^9 and I got confused >.< thanks for the help!
