Question

Please do not make into a fraction because I can’t use a fraction as an answer. Rewrite using a negative exponent.

Answer 1

$\bf \left.\qquad \qquad \right.\textit{negative exponents}\\\\ a^{-{ n}} \implies \cfrac{1}{a^{ n}} \qquad \qquad \cfrac{1}{a^{ n}}\implies a^{-{ n}} \qquad \qquad a^{{{ n}}}\implies \cfrac{1}{a^{-{{ n}}}}\\\\ -------------------------------\\\\ \cfrac{1}{(xy)^{+1}}\implies (xy)^{-1}$
