simplify x^{-2}*x^{-3}

Solution

simplify

x^{- 2} \cdot x^{- 3}

Solution

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

Solution steps

x^{- 2} x^{- 3}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b} \cdot a^{c} = a^{b + c}

x^{- 2} x^{- 3} = x^{- 2 - 3}

= x^{- 2 - 3}

Subtract the numbers:

- 2 - 3 = - 5

= x^{- 5}

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

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