Help with exponents... Question attached below.

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

\[\huge (\frac{ y^2 }{ -2x^3 \times 2x^3 })^{-3}\]

Nnesha (nnesha):

flipp the fraction to make it positive exponent

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

okay

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

\[\huge (\frac{ -2x^3 \times 2x^3 }{ y^2 })^{3}\]

Nnesha (nnesha):

perfect now first deal with the numerator \[\huge\rm -2x^3 \times 2x^3 = ?\]

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

\[-4x^6\]

Nnesha (nnesha):

yes right \[\huge\rm (\frac{-4x^6 }{ y^2 })^3\] now apply the exponent rule \[\huge\rm (ab)^m =a^m b^m\]

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

okay give me a moment.

Nnesha (nnesha):

sure,take ur time

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

\[\large \frac{ -64x^{18} }{ y^6 }\]
