Apply the property of negative integer exponents to rewrite 9 to the power of -23 as expression with positive exponents only

Answer 1

To rewrite \( 9^{-23} \) using the property of negative integer exponents, you can use the rule:

\[ a^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n} \]

Applying this property to \( 9^{-23} \) gives:

\[ 9^{-23} = \frac{1}{9^{23}} \]

So, the expression with positive exponents only is:

\[ \frac{1}{9^{23}} \]
