rewrite the expression with positive exponents.pleaze explain thanks
1)20X TO THE -8 POWER Y TO THE -8 POWER
the answer is 20/x8y8
i mean 20/x^8y^8
20/(x^8 y^8)
To rewrite the expression with positive exponents, we can use the rules of exponents.
1) 20x^(-8) * y^(-8)
The rule states that any term raised to a negative exponent can be written as the reciprocal of the term raised to the positive exponent.
In this case, 20x^(-8) can be rewritten as 1 / (20x^8), and y^(-8) can be rewritten as 1 / (y^8).
So the expression can be rewritten as:
1 / (20x^8 * y^8)
This is the expression with positive exponents.
