There is nothing for me to go off of
B then that’s how you get the answer
For this case we have the following expression:
(ab) ^ - 2
Rewriting the expression we have:
(ab) ^ - 2 = 1 / (ab) ^ 2
Then, for power properties we have:
1 / (ab) ^ 2 = 1 / (a ^ 2b ^ 2)
Answer:
The simplified expression is:
1 / (a ^ 2b ^ 2)
