1. Simplify the expression 7^9/7^3
a.7^3***
b.7^6
c.7^12
d.1^6
2. Simplify the expression z^8/z^12
a.z^20
b.z^4
c.1/z^-4
d.1/z^4
3. Simplify the expression (-3^4)/(-3^4
a.(-3)^1
b.0
c.1
d.(-3)^8
4.Which expressions can be rewritten as 1 over the base raised to a positive exponent? 2
a.b^-2/b^4
b.w^5/w^-3
c.5^3/5^5
d.4^7/4^7
2.c?
3.c
4.a and d?
#1. 7^(9-3) = 7^6
NOT 7^(9/3) = 7^3
subtract exponents when dividing numbers. What you have is
7*7*7*7*7*7*7*7*7
------------------------
7*7*7
only three of the 7's cancel
#2
z^8/z^12 = 1/z^4 = z^-4
So, D, not C
#3 ok
#4 not sure what that trailing 2 means, but
a.b^-2/b^4 = (1/b^2)/b^4 = 1/b^6
b.w^5/w^-3 = w^5 * w^3 = w^8
c.5^3/5^5 = 1/5^2
d.4^7/4^7 = 4^0 = 1
Looks like A and C both work.
Thank you so much steve

3. C
4. A and C
Martha is right 5/5 100%
The quiz answers were wrong from the connexus person I wound up getting 2/8.
The correct answers are
1. X^7
2. H^9
3. 1/16
4. 1
5. =
6. -16r^2-10
7. 2a^3+8a^2
8. 9y^2-6y
Did AIP and got a new score of 8/8
