Question

Write each fraction as an expression using a negative exponent other than -1. 3. 1 ___________ 4 24. 1 ___________ 100

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{1}{4} = 2^{-2}$

$\frac{1}{100} = 10^{-2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is poorly formatted. However, I am able to get:

1. 1/4 and 2. 1/100

Required

Write as an expression of negative expression

1. 1/4.

Express 4 as 2^2

$\frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{2^2}$

Apply

law of indices $(\frac{1}{a^b} = a^{-b})$

$\frac{1}{4} = 2^{-2}$

2. 1/100.

Express 100 as 4^2

$\frac{1}{100} = \frac{1}{10^2}$

Apply law of indices $(\frac{1}{a^b} = a^{-b})$

$\frac{1}{100} = 10^{-2}$
