Let's go over the problems you're working on from the image.
Question 6: Simplify each expression and eliminate any negative exponents.
(a) You submitted the answer "Z6", which was marked incorrect. Likely the issue here involves simplifying the exponents using the properties of exponents and ensuring correct capitalization.
Solution:
- Using the rule , simplify both the numerator and denominator:
- Now simplify the fraction: So, the correct answer is . Ensure the lowercase "z" is used to match the variable as given in the problem.
(b) You submitted an incorrect answer for this as well. To simplify:
Solution:
- Apply the exponent rule , to both the constant and the variables inside the parentheses:
- Simplify: So, the expression becomes: The correct answer is .
Question 7: Simplify each expression.
(a) You submitted an answer but it was marked incorrect.
Solution:
- Use the property to apply to each term: [ \sqrt[3]{49x^4y^6z} = \sqrt[3]{49} \cdot \sqrt[3]{x^4} \cdot \sqrt[3]{y^6} \cdot \sqrt[3]{z} ]
- Simplify each part: The expression becomes: Alternatively, if a simplified answer form is needed, it might look like:

a^m * a^n = a^{m+n}
(a^m) / (a^n) = a^{m-n}
(a^m)^n = a^{m*n}
√[n]{a^m} = a^{m/n}
