Apply the Property of Negative Integer Exponents to generate an expression equivalent to 3^−17/8^−14 with positive exponents only.(1 point)

3^−17/8^−14= ?

1 answer

To apply the property of negative integer exponents, we can rewrite the expression as:

3^(-17) / 8^(-14)

Using the property that a^(-n) = 1 / a^n, we can rewrite the expression as:

1 / (3^17) / (1 / (8^14))

Simplifying further, we get:

1 / (3^17) * (8^14)

Therefore, the expression with positive exponents only is:

(8^14) / (3^17)
