<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Negative exponents in the numerator get moved to the denominator and become positive exponents</u>

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

In any problem where the exponent is given in negative can be solved by taking negative exponents in the numerator to the denominator and become positive exponents.

For instance the given problem can be solved as writing 3 ^ -1 as 1/3

So the rule is moving the exponent to the denominator and make it positive

Anything to a negative power becomes the inverse with the coefficient to a positive power.
For example, 3^-1 becomes 1/3^1 or just 1/3.
3^-2 would be 1/3^2 or 1/9.

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Radius

Step-by-step explanation:

A circle is made of specific components which define its shape. It has a fixed center which is equidistant apart from all points at its edge. The distance from the center to each point is called its radius. The distance from its edge through its center to the opposite edge is called the diameter.

Cindi is planting a rectangular flower bed with 40 orange flower and 28 yellow flowers. She wants to plant them so that each row
Vilka [71]

Answer: 17 rows, 7 of yellow flowers and 10 of orange flowers.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 40 orange flowers

we have 28 yellow flowers.

The total number of flowers is 40 + 28= 68

Now, we want to find the maximal comon factor between 28 and 40 (that will be the number of flowers in each row)

for this, we took the smallest number and find its factors, and then we see if those factors are also of the greater number.

28/1 = 28 ----> 40/28 is not integer, so 28 is not a factor of 40.

28/2 = 14 ----> 40/14 is not integer, so 14 is not a factor of 40.

28/3 is not integer.

28/4 = 7 ----> 40/7 is not integer, so 7 is not a factor of 40.

28/5 is not integer.

28/6 is not integer.

28/7 = 4, 40/4 = 10, so 4 is a factor of both 28 and 40.

Then the maximum number of flowers that we can put in each row is 4.

this means that we have:

28/4 = 7 rows of yellow flowers (with 4 flowers each)

40/4 = 10 rows of orange flowers (with 4 flowers each)

a total of 17 rows.
