Question 660189: Simplify the expression and eliminate any negative exponent(s). Assume that all letters denote positive numbers.
(4x^5y^−1/4)^2(64y^−3/2)^−1/3 Answer by Edwin McCravy(20056) (Show Source):
Write the 4 as 22 and the 64 as 26
Remove the parentheses by multiplying each exponent inside
each pair of parentheses by the exponent just outside the
right parenthesis:
To multiply we add the exponents of 2 and the exponents of y:
4x10
