simplify ((-x)^8)/((-x)^2)

Solution

simplify

\frac{( - x ) ^{8}}{( - x ) ^{2}}

Solution

x^{6}

Solution steps

\frac{( - x ) ^{8}}{( - x ) ^{2}}

Apply exponent rule:

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

= (- x)^{8 - 2}

Subtract the numbers:

8 - 2 = 6

= (- x)^{6}

Apply exponent rule:

(- a)^{n} = a^{n},

if

n

is even

(- x)^{6} = x^{6}

= x^{6}
