Given:

Dividing a number by 2 always results in a smaller number.

To find:

The counterexample to the given claim.

Solution:

If 0 is divided by is divided by any non-zero real number a, then

\dfrac{0}{a}=0

Let us consider the unknown number be 0. Then dividing a number by 2, we get

\dfrac{0}{2}=0

Here, the result is not a smaller number because 0=0.

Therefore, the counterexample to the given claim is "Dividing 0 by 2".

Answer:

y*y*y*y*y

y^5

Step-by-step explanation:

When you multiply exponents with the same base you're supposed to add them so your answer to the first is y^5 but your teacher is being weird and wants you to write it with no exponents so you can just write it 5 times

so number one is y*y*y*y*y

I answered number two in my explanation above

you add the exponents

y^2+y^3=y^5

if you have any questions let me know
