\frac{x}{y} = - \frac{3}{2}

given

\frac{x-y}{x+y} = 5 ( cross- multiply )

5(x + y) = x - y

5x + 5y = x - y ( subtract (x - y) from both sides )

4x + 6y = 0 ( subtract 6y from both sides )

4x = - 6y

\frac{x}{y} = - \frac{6}{4} = - \frac{3}{2}

80 POINTS!!!!<br><br> Simplify 6 to the power of -3 over 6 to the power of 5
tigry1 [53]

6^-3 / 6^5

Because the numerator has a negative exponent, use the negative exponent rule b^-n = 1/b^n

To do this move 6^-3 to the denominator:

1 / (6^5 * 6^3)

When you multiply identical numbers with exponents you add the exponents so (6^5 * 6^3) becomes 6^8

Now you have 1 / 6^8

Now raise 6 to the power of 8 to get:

1/1679616

Depending on the format your answer needs to be in you have 3 different answers:

1) 1/6^8 ( Leaving it as an exponent)

2) 1 / 1679616 (As a fraction)

3) 5.9537 x 10^-7 (As a decimal, round as needed)
