simplify (1/2)^{-x}

Solution

simplify

(\frac{1}{2})^{- x}

Solution

2^{x}

Solution steps

(\frac{1}{2})^{- x}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{- b} = \frac{1}{a ^{b}}

(\frac{1}{2})^{- x} = \frac{1}{( \frac{1}{2} ) ^{x}}

= \frac{1}{( \frac{1}{2} ) ^{x}}

Simplify

(\frac{1}{2})^{x} : \frac{1}{2 ^{x}}

= \frac{1}{\frac{1}{2 ^{x}}}

Simplify

\frac{1}{\frac{1}{2 ^{x}}} : 2^{x}

= 2^{x}
