simplify x^{-1}y

Solution

simplify

x^{- 1} y

Solution

\frac{y}{x}

Solution steps

x^{- 1} y

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

= \frac{1}{x} y

Apply the fraction rule:

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

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

Apply rule:

1 \cdot a = a

1 \cdot y = y

= \frac{y}{x}
