Will give medal to most helpful!!!! Simplify M^-5=1/32 M=_____

OpenStudy (anonymous):

M^-5 means m has an exponent of -5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its simple written in the form of 1/m^5 and 1/2^5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think m = -2 I'm not sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Because 2^-5 = 1/32

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, hang on a moment my lil bro took my calculator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I mean m = 2 I'm not this is really right though so don't count on it being right lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry i didnt want anyone to think i was ignoring them

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well,if im doing this right 2 exp-5 is 0.03125

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know, i will just put 2 lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You'll have to ask someone else because I dont know but 2^-5 is 0.03125

OpenStudy (anonymous):
