will fan and medal. I need help with this equation! its hard for me (screenshot in comments)

OpenStudy (katnissstyles000):

OpenStudy (mrs.ambrose614):

WHAT DO WE FIGURE OUT

OpenStudy (katnissstyles000):

@Mrs.ambrose614 did you see the screenshot?

OpenStudy (mrs.ambrose614):

YES

OpenStudy (sunnnystrong):

Okay so... \[\frac{ (2x^2y^4)(4x^2y^4)(3x) }{ 3x^{-2}y^2}\] @KatnissStyles000 ... I take it you are simplifying?

OpenStudy (mrs.ambrose614):

ARE WE FIGURING OUT THE 3Y?//

OpenStudy (katnissstyles000):

yes

OpenStudy (mrs.ambrose614):

THE ANWSER IS 2Y2-3X

OpenStudy (katnissstyles000):

@Mrs.ambrose614 thx

OpenStudy (mrs.ambrose614):

WELCOME

OpenStudy (sunnnystrong):

If so... recall that: \[(M^2)(M^3)=M^5\] *Exponents with the same base.... you add the exponents to simplify

OpenStudy (katnissstyles000):

@sunnnystrong thank u

OpenStudy (sunnnystrong):

Negative exponents: \[x^{-2}=\frac{ 1 }{ x^2 }\]

OpenStudy (sunnnystrong):

And NP :D Always happy to help haha Can you tell me what you got?..

OpenStudy (katnissstyles000):

I got what @Mrs.ambrose614 got. 2y^2-3X

OpenStudy (katnissstyles000):

is that right? or did i do something wrong?

OpenStudy (sunnnystrong):

It's not right... it's \[8x^3y^6\]

OpenStudy (mrs.ambrose614):

NOITS NOT I WENT ON MATHWAY AND GOT THAT

OpenStudy (katnissstyles000):

oh. i now know what i got wrong but thank u both

OpenStudy (sunnnystrong):

Ooops.. I wrote the exponent wrong. \[8x^2y^6\] *Answer to your question & @Mrs.ambrose614 did you write it incorrectly online? It's definitely not \[ 2Y^2-3X\] in it's most simplest form.... do you see why?

OpenStudy (katnissstyles000):

yes. thank you
