Question

Apply the Properties of Integer Exponents to generate an equivalent expression to 8^0 4^3
/ 5^-2with only positive exponents, then solve the expression. (1 point)

Answer 1

To generate an equivalent expression with only positive exponents, we can use the property that any number raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1. So, we have:

8^0 = 1
4^3 = 4 * 4 * 4 = 64
5^-2 = 1 / 5^2 = 1 / (5 * 5) = 1 / 25

Therefore, the equivalent expression is:

1 * 64 / (1 / 25) = 64 * 25 = 1600.

So the solution is 1600.
