usw the negative exponent rule to generate an equivalent expression to 3 -1/2

1 answer

To use the negative exponent rule to generate an equivalent expression to 3 -1/2, we can rewrite the expression as:

3 * 2^-1/2

Using the negative exponent rule, we know that anything raised to a negative exponent can be flipped and made positive. So, we can rewrite the expression as:

3 * 1/(√2)

Simplifying the expression, we have:

3/√2
