simplify x^{-1}\times x

Solution

simplify

x^{- 1} \cdot x

Solution

1

Solution steps

x^{- 1} x

Apply exponent rule:

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

x^{- 1} x = x^{- 1 + 1}

= x^{- 1 + 1}

Add/Subtract the numbers:

- 1 + 1 = 0

= x^{0}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{0} = 1,

assuming

a \neq = 0

= 1
