Question

Determine whether the statement is true or false.

Answer 1

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

The negative power property of exponents says that:

$x^{-n}=\frac{1}{x^n}$

And vice versa:

$\frac{1}{x^{-n}}=x^n$

Therefore, since our exponent is negative, we can change it to positive if we put it in the numerator. In other words:

$\frac{1}{3^{-4}}=3^4$

The statement is true.

Answer 2

False
