Question

select the equivalent expression.
\\(\frac{y^5}{xx^6y^7}\\)
answer attempt 1 out of 3
\\(y^2\\) \\(x^7y^2\\)
\\(\frac{1}{y^2}\\) \\(\frac{1}{x^7y^2}\\)

Explanation:

Step1: Combine like x terms

$xx^6 = x^{1+6} = x^7$

Step2: Simplify y terms

$\frac{y^5}{y^7} = y^{5-7} = y^{-2} = \frac{1}{y^2}$

Step3: Combine simplified terms

$\frac{1}{x^7 y^2}$

Answer:

$\frac{1}{x^7 y^2}$
