Question

Simplify each expression. Use positive exponents. 
	
m ^3 n ^–6 p ^0

nnesha · Answer

okay so there is p^0
anything on 0 power is just one

studygurl14 · Answer

Some rules of exponents you will need:
$\large x^{-m}=\frac{1}{x^m}$

$\large x^0=1$

anonymous · Answer

alright

nnesha · Answer

$$x ^{0} = 1$$
$$2^{0} = 1$$
so what is $$p ^{0} = ???$$

anonymous · Answer

Hint: $$x^{-n} \implies \frac{ 1 }{ x }$$
Any integer/ variable to the power of 0 = 1. For example: $$7^0 = 1~~~\text{and}~~~x^0 = 1$$

nnesha · Answer

and yes like batman said if you have negative power 
you just have to flip it

anonymous · Answer

its hard for me to follow im not that good at math

nnesha · Answer

what is p^0 = ????

anonymous · Answer

1

studygurl14 · Answer

Correct.^

studygurl14 · Answer

Using that, you can simplify...
$\large m^3n^{-6}p^0$
into...
$\large m^3n^{-6}$

studygurl14 · Answer

What next?

anonymous · Answer

do we do n^-6 next?

nnesha · Answer

yes right now you have to flip that bec you cannot have negative exponent 
$$x ^{-3} = \frac{ 1 }{ x ^{3} }$$ for example

anonymous · Answer

how did you loose the negative?

nnesha · Answer

reciprocal x^-3 is same as |dw:1419274137473:dw|
 so when you flip it sign gonna change if you havae negative ti change to postive 
and if you positive it change to negative
