Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The expression simplifies to $-5(x^{20}y^4)$ by applying the power of a power rule and simplifying the negative exponents.

Simplify - −5(x−5y−1)−4- 5 \left( x ^ { - 5 } y ^ { - 1 } \right) ^ { - 4 }−5(x−5y−1)−4

Simplify
- $- 5 \left( x ^ { - 5 } y ^ { - 1 } \right) ^ { - 4 }$
