Question

Quotient rule of exponents quick check

Answer 1

The quotient rule of exponents states that when dividing two exponential terms with the same base, you subtract the exponents.

For example, if you have the expression x^a / x^b, where x is the base and a and b are the exponents, you can simplify it using the quotient rule by subtracting the exponents:

x^(a-b)
