Simplify and express in exponential form: 8^-1 * 3^3/ 2^-4 * 9^-2

2^1* 3^7

Step-by-step explanation:

8^-1 * 3^3/ 2^-4 * 9^-2

Negative exponents move from the numerator to the denominator or from the denominator to the numerator

2^4*9^2* 3^3 /8^1  

Rewriting 9^2 as 3^2^2 = 3^4  and 8 = 2^3

2^4 * 3^3 * 3^4 / 2^3

2^4/ 2^3 = 2   and 3^3 * 3^4 = 3^(3+4) = 3^7

2* 3^7

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 ÷ 3/4

step-by-step explanation:

basically divide any proper fraction with itself to fit the criteria.

so if we are using 3/4, then:

3/4 ÷ 3/4 = 1

so 1 is the quotient.

and the numerators for both these fractions is 3.   and if we divide the numerators:

3 ÷ 3 = 1

we see that quotient is equal to our original quotient as well.

5x+2x=49

7x=49
