Do you know @Legends
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thank you guys I appreciate the help =)

Is this it?
\(\dfrac{4xy}{3y^4} \times \dfrac{9y}{2x}\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
If it is, we simplify it accordingly:
\(\dfrac{4xy}{3y^4} \times \dfrac{9y}{2x} \rightarrow \dfrac{4xy \times 9y}{3y^4 \times 2x}\)

yes =) how do you make it look like that on here? =o
OpenStudy (anonymous):
It's called LaTeX, just click the 'Equation' button below the comment box..it's a blue button.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh duh sorry I should have known that
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Lol
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Can you multiply 4xy * 9y?
And 3y^4 * 2x?

ohhh and yes =) .. I think lol 36xy^2 and 6xy^4 ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You got it! :D
OpenStudy (anonymous):
That gives us:
\(\dfrac{36xy^2}{6xy^4}\)
Now we divide the whole numbers and subtract the exponents:
\(\dfrac{36}{6}x^{1-1}y^{2-4}\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Tell me what you get.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
6y^2 ? =)

Yep! But the exponent is actually negative.
\(6y^{-2}\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh because the exponent placements in equation above and below the line?
