Simplify x^8/x^4 (1 point)
Because the numerator has an exponent of 8 and the denominator has an exponent of 4, when you divide you are left with x^2
Because there are 8 factors of x in the numerator and 4 factors of x in the denominator, when the x's cancel you are left with x^4
Because when you are dividing with exponents, you should add the exponents so that you are left with x^12
Because there are 8 factors of x in the numerator and 4 factors of x in the denominator, when the x's cancel you are left with x^−4
The correct answer is x^4.
Write in exponent form: 2x ⋅ 2x ⋅ 2x ⋅ 2x (1 point)
Because when you are multiplying with exponents, you would add to get 8 ⋅ x^4
Because we only worry about the exponent on the variable, 2 ⋅ x^4
Because these are like terms, we just add the coefficients to get 8x
Because there are 4 factors of 2 and 4 factors of x, 2^4 ⋅ x^4
