Exercise 30 Page 674

To simplify the given expression, use the Properties of Exponents.

x/4y

Practice makes perfect

To simplify the given expression, we will use the Properties of Exponents. For this exercise, we will begin by using the Quotient of a Product Property.

2xy/8y^2

Write as a product of fractions

2x/8 * y/y^2

a/b=.a /2./.b /2.

x/4 * y/y^2

a^m/b^m=(a/b)^m

x/4 * y^(1-2)

Subtract term

x/4 * y^(- 1)

NegOneExponentToFrac

a^(- 1)=1/a

x/4 * 1/y

Multiply fractions

x/4y
