No, he needed to multiply 3 and –1 instead of creating a positive exponent in a fraction. No, his value of (negative 4) squared should be positive because an even exponent indicates a positive value.

Answer:

No, his value of (negative 4) squared should be positive because an even exponent indicates a positive value.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is not well written. The expression is written as;

(xy^-2)/(3x²y^-4)

According to indices;

a^m ÷ a^n = a^{m-n}

Applying this to solve the question

1/3(x^{1-2})/(y^-2÷y^-4)

= 1/3(x^{-1})(y^{-2+4})

= 1/3(1/x)y²

= 1/(3x) × y²

Substituting x = 3 and y = -4

= 1/3(1/3)×(-4)²

= 1/9(16)

= 16/9

Imothy solution is incorrect.

According to Imothy solution, his value of (negative 4) squared should be positive because an even exponent indicates a positive value.
