Answer: (x^7)/(x^4) = x^3, x^(-3) = 1/(x^3), x^0 = 1, (x^4)/(x^3) = x
Step-by-step explanation:
Dividing two exponents with the same base can be simplified by subtracting the exponents. Thus (x^7)/(x^4) is the same as x^(7-4), or x^3.
A negative exponent is the same as the reciprocal of the positive exponent. x^-3 is the same as 1/(x^3).
Anything with an exponent of 0 is equal to 1.
Again, when dividing two exponents, if they have the same base, you can just subtract the exponents. (x^4)/(x^3) = x^(4-3) = x^1 = x.
