Jim, can you help? @jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

let me know if this helps @sbuck98 (see attached)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

if it's too small, then I suggest zooming in at least to 150%

OpenStudy (sbuck98):

can you help with the last one too?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you'll use the same rules but instead of rule 3, you'll use Rule 4: \(\Huge \frac{a^x}{a^y} = a^{x-y}\) tell me how far you get with #5

OpenStudy (sbuck98):

can you show me? I don't know any thing about this

OpenStudy (sbuck98):

@jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

OpenStudy (sbuck98):

I saw it but didn't understand @jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

which part are you stuck on? which step doesn't make sense?

OpenStudy (sbuck98):

none of it

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

OpenStudy (sbuck98):

no

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
