Question 93224: My problem is a division one....
(P^-5)^-9(P^-6)^4 divided (P^-8)^0(P^4)^-5
I need help with this one......negative exponents Found 2 solutions by stanbon, tutorcecilia:Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! [(P^-5)^-9(P^-6)^4] / [(P^-8)^0(P^4)^-5]
Simplify numerator and denominator to get:
= [P^45 - 9P^(-24)] / [1*P^-20]
Factor the numerator; simplify the denominator to get:
= [P^(-24)(P^66 -9)] / [P^-20}
= [(P^66 - 9)]/ P^4
