To simplify the expression (-5x^2/y^3)^2 using the properties of exponents, we square each term separately:
(-5)^2 = 25
(x^2)^2 = x^(2*2) = x^4
(y^3)^2 = y^(3*2) = y^6
Putting it all together, the simplified expression is:
25x^4/y^6
Simplify the expression using the properties of exponents. Expand any numerical portion of your answer and only include positive exponents.
