We are given (xy)^(-3).

This leads to 1/(xy)^3.

You see, going from the top to the bottom alters the sign of the exponent to its opposite.

ANSWER: 1/(x^3•y^3)

Did you follow?

Solve for x: <br> (x+4)/2=7<br><br> * (x+4)/2 is a fraction *

blondinia [14]

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we got our equation:

$\frac{x+4}{2}=y$

We'll multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of that fraction.

x+4=14

Then, we just subtract 4 from both sides.

x=10
