simplify e^{-5x}*(-e^x)

Solution

simplify

e^{- 5 x} \cdot (- e^{x})

Solution

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

Solution steps

e^{- 5 x} (- e^{x})

Apply exponent rule:

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

= \frac{1}{e ^{5 x}} (- e^{x})

Remove parentheses:

(- a) = - a

= - \frac{1}{e ^{5 x}} e^{x}

Multiply fractions:

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

= - \frac{1 \cdot e ^{x}}{e ^{5 x}}

Multiply:

1 \cdot e^{x} = e^{x}

= - \frac{e ^{x}}{e ^{5 x}}

Apply exponent rule:

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

\frac{e ^{x}}{e ^{5 x}} = e^{x - 5 x} = e^{- 4 x}

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