Question

Select the equivalent expression 1/y^6 = ?

Answer 1

Answer: y^-6

Explanation:

1/x = x^-1

so 1/y^6 = y^-6

Answer 2

Answer:
`y^(-6)`

The negative exponent tells us to apply the reciprocal to the base

Another example would be something like
`x^(-2) = (1)/(x^2)`

Or another example would be
`\left((2)/(3)\right)^(-4) = \left((3)/(2)\right)^(4)`
