simplify (-4x^2)^{-1}

Solution

simplify

(- 4 x^{2})^{- 1}

Solution

- \frac{1}{4 x ^{2}}

Solution steps

(- 4 x^{2})^{- 1}

Apply exponent rule:

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

(- 4 x^{2})^{- 1} = \frac{1}{- 4 x ^{2}}

= \frac{1}{- 4 x ^{2}}

Apply the fraction rule:

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

= - \frac{1}{4 x ^{2}}
