Question

Which shows the following expression after the negative exponents have been eliminated? xy^-6/x^-4 y^2, x=/0 y=/0

Answer 1

The expression would be
`(x^5)/(y^8)` after the negative exponents have been removed.

A negative exponent basically tells us to "flip" the side of the fraction it's on. This means that y⁻⁶ on the numerator would go to the denominator, and that x⁻⁴ on the denominator would go to the numerator. This gives us:


`(x* x^4)/(y^2* y^6)=(x^5)/(y^8)`

Answer 2

It would be B, xx4 y2y6
