@Ms-Brains

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i see but im not that smart

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah im just super confused on what to do

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

so hmm does this \(\large a^{-{\color{red} n}} \implies \cfrac{1}{a^{\color{red} n}}\qquad \qquad \cfrac{1}{a^{\color{red} n}}\implies a^{-{\color{red} n}}\) ring a bell?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah it does

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

alrite.. .so.. what would that make then .. say \(\bf \cfrac{1}{4}\implies ?\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats what im not sure about. i dont know where to put all of the exponent

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

well... check above \(\large a^{-{\color{red} n}} \implies \cfrac{1}{a^{\color{red} n}}\qquad \qquad \cfrac{1}{a^{\color{red} n}}\implies a^{-{\color{red} n}}\)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\large {\cfrac{1}{a^{\color{red} n}}\implies a^{-{\color{red} n}}\qquad thus\qquad \cfrac{1}{4^1}\implies ? }\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i figured it out thank you

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):
