Miss sue did you notice the answer you gave me the person who did it didn't do it right because its to the negative 4 power thanks . Can you try to solve it on your own? Thanks if you do.

Algebra Student is correct!

Algebra Student is 100% correct, don't listen to False Finder

yea false finder is wrong

THE ANSWERS ARE CORRECT 100%

Algebra student is 100% correct! False finder is 100% incorrect! Stay safe!

Thank you! I knew how to do it but I kept on second guessing myself

Oh Sam and me are the same person in this question.

Please try to stick with one name.

If you had looked carefully at the solution I gave you before, you would have noticed that I took care of the
a^-4 by converting it to 1/a^4

Here is what I did, look it over carefully

#7 , the way you typed it ... it would be

(1/2)a^-4 b^2
= (1/2)(1/(-2)^4 (4)^2
= (1/2)(1/16)(16) = 1/2

dont listen to false finder y'all ๐Ÿ™„โœ‹.
