Applying Properties of Exponents In Exercise,use the properties of exponents to simplify the expression.

vitfil [10]

Answer:

(A) $e^2$

(b) $e^{-3}$

(d) $e^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given expression and we have to simplify the expression using exponent property

(A) $(\frac{1}{e})^{-2}$

So $(\frac{1}{e})^{-2}=\frac{1}{e^{-2}}=e^2$

(b) $(\frac{e^5}{e^2})^{-1}$

So $(\frac{e^5}{e^2})^{-1}=(e^{3})^{-1}=e^{-3}$

So $\frac{e^5}{e^3}=e^2$

(d) $\frac{1}{e^{-3}}=e^3$
