Question

Which one is it??
(btw the negative answer isn't right.)

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

Rule: a Minus power always goes to the opposite place to where it is. If it is in the denominator, it goes to the numerator. If it is the numerator, it goes to the denominator. The minus power does not affect the sign of the expression.

So you are right. The minus power does not give a minus answer.

`(y^(-2))/(3y^4)=(1)/(3y^2y^4)=(1)/(3y^((2 + 4))) = (1)/(3y^6)`

Answer: A
