Question

State True or False.

Simplify: $(2x^2{y}^{-3}{)}^{-2}$, then answer is $\frac{y^6}{4x^4}=\frac{1}{4}{y}^6{x}^{-4}$.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

$\Rightarrow (2x^2{y}^{-3}{)}^{-2}$
$\Rightarrow 2^{-2}{x}^{2\cdot -2}{y}^{-3\cdot -2}$
$\Rightarrow 2^{-2}{x}^{-4}{y}^6\Rightarrow \frac{y^6}{4x^4}\Rightarrow \frac{1}{4}{y}^6{x}^{-4}$
