Answer 1

Answer:

a^-b = 1/a^b

a^b/a^c = a^b-c

a^c/b^c = (a/b)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

A^-b is the same as 1/a^b.

When there is a negative power, place the number and power over 1.

a^b/a^c = a^(b-c).

c is a negative power, because it is being divided, and is underneath b, which is a positive (and so it stays in the numerator).

a^c/b^c = (a/b)^c

Inside this one, the power of c is distributed to all numbers inside the parenthesis, in this case a and b.
