simplify xy^{-5}

Solution

simplify

x y^{- 5}

Solution

\frac{x}{y ^{5}}

Solution steps

x y^{- 5}

Apply exponent rule:

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

y^{- 5} = \frac{1}{y ^{5}}

= x \frac{1}{y ^{5}}

Apply the fraction rule:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= \frac{x \cdot 1}{y ^{5}}

Apply rule:

a \cdot 1 = a

x \cdot 1 = x

= \frac{x}{y ^{5}}
