To rewrite the expressions \(3^{-17/8}\) and \(8^{-14}\) using positive exponents, we apply the property of exponents that states \(a^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n}\).
-
For the first expression \(3^{-17/8}\): \[ 3^{-17/8} = \frac{1}{3^{17/8}} \]
-
For the second expression \(8^{-14}\): \[ 8^{-14} = \frac{1}{8^{14}} \]
Thus, the two expressions with positive exponents are:
- \(3^{-17/8} = \frac{1}{3^{17/8}}\)
- \(8^{-14} = \frac{1}{8^{14}}\)
