Apply the Property of Negative Integer Exponents to rewrite 9^−23 as an expression with positive exponents only.(1 point)
To rewrite 9^−23 with positive exponents only, we can apply the property of negative integer exponents, which states that a negative exponent can be rewritten as the reciprocal of the number with the positive exponent.
Therefore, 9^−23 can be written as 1/(9^23).
To apply the property of negative integer exponents, we can use the following rule:
a^(-n) = 1/(a^n)
Applying this rule to the expression 9^(-23), we can rewrite it as:
1/(9^23)
Therefore, the expression with positive exponents only is 1/(9^23).
