To factor the expression 24x^-6y-45xy^2, let's first find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms.
The GCF of 24x^-6y and -45xy^2 is 3xy.
Now, we can use the GCF to factor out common terms:
24x^-6y - 45xy^2 = 3xy (8x^-6 - 15y)
The factored form is 3xy(8x^-6 - 15y).
The GCF of 24x^-6y and -45xy^2 is 3xy.
Now, we can use the GCF to factor out common terms:
24x^-6y - 45xy^2 = 3xy (8x^-6 - 15y)
The factored form is 3xy(8x^-6 - 15y).
