Apple the Property of Negative Integer Exponents to rewrite 15^ -38 as an expression with positive exponents only

15^ -38

11 answers

To rewrite \( 15^{-38} \) with positive exponents only, you can use the property of negative integer exponents, which states that \( a^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n} \).

Applying this property:

\[ 15^{-38} = \frac{1}{15^{38}} \]

So, \( 15^{-38} \) can be rewritten as:

\[ \frac{1}{15^{38}} \]

This expression has positive exponents only.

can not add {}

Certainly! To rewrite \( 15^{-38} \) as an expression with positive exponents without using braces, we simply express it as

\( \frac{1}{15^{38}} \).

This form is the correct representation of \( 15^{-38} \) using only positive exponents.

what do i type?

You can type the expression using plain text like this:

1 / 15^38

This represents the expression \( \frac{1}{15^{38}} \) in a format that doesn't use any braces or special characters.

Apple the Property of Negative Integer Exponents to rewrite 9^ -23 as an expression with positive exponents only

To rewrite \( 9^{-23} \) using only positive exponents, you apply the property of negative exponents, which states that \( a^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n} \).

So, for \( 9^{-23} \):

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

Thus, the expression \( 9^{-23} \) written with positive exponents only is:

1 / 9^23

Apple the Property of Negative Integer Exponents to rewrite 3^ -4 as an expression with positive exponents only

To rewrite \( 3^{-4} \) using only positive exponents, you can apply the property of negative exponents, which states that \( a^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n} \).

So for \( 3^{-4} \):

\[ 3^{-4} = \frac{1}{3^{4}} \]

Therefore, the expression \( 3^{-4} \) with positive exponents only is:

1 / 3^4

it says wrong

It seems there might have been a misunderstanding. However, using the property of negative integers exponents correctly gives us:

For \( 3^{-4} \):

\[ 3^{-4} \text{ can be rewritten as } \frac{1}{3^4} \]

If you need to type it out in a specific format (like in a particular text editor or program), ensure to use the appropriate notation without any additional formatting characters.

If there's a specific format or input style required that I'm not aware of, please provide that information so I can assist you better.

Otherwise, the correct mathematical expression with a positive exponent derived from \( 3^{-4} \) is indeed:

1 / 3^4
