Question

Please someone should help me solve it 2x ÷ x^ - 4

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is

${2x}^{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2x}{ {x}^{ - 4} }$

First of all separate the two from the x

That's

$\frac{2(x)}{ {x}^{ - 4} }$

Next we use the rules of indices

Since they have the same base and are dividing we subtract the exponents

That's

$\frac{ {a}^{x} }{ {a}^{y} } = {a}^{x - y}$

So we have

$\frac{2(x)}{ {x}^{ - 4} } = 2( {x}^{1 - - 4)} = 2( {x}^{1 + 4} )$

We have the final answer as

${2x}^{5}$

Hope this helps you
