Question

Write each expression using a single exponent.

H^14 over h^5
A. h-9
B. one over h to the ninth
C. h19
D. h9

Answer 1

The answer is (A) h^-9.

Explanation: When dividing exponents with the same base, you subtract the exponents. So:

H^14 / h^5 = h^(14-5) = h^9

However, since the problem asks for a single exponent, we need to put it in exponent form, which gives us h^-9.
