Simplify ?
When dividing polynomials you subtract the power of the numerator by the power of the denominator.
The answer is the power of the simplified expression
In this example our answer is .

Which of the following is an alternate positive expression of 4-3?
You can simplify negative exponents in order to work only with positive numbers. Simply make the negative number positive and divide 1 by the entire expression.

Which of the following is a simplified expression of X3X2?
When you multiply two exponential expressions with the same base, add the exponents to simplify the expression.
Compare your answer with the correct one above
Which of the following is an alternate expression of X3Y3?
When you are required to multiply exponential expressions with different bases but the same exponent, you can simplify the expression by adding parentheses and only using the exponent one time.

To solve we must first write out what is:
Now,we can simplify. However, notice that when subtracting these terms, we subtract all terms in the parentheses. Remember when we subtract a negative number, it is the same as adding the number. This is illustrated in the simplification below.
This simplifies to
Now we can combine like terms. Let's put those together and then simplify

Simplify the expression below.
When simplifying the addition or subtraction of polynomials, we want to combine like terms. First, when we have a negative sign outside our parentheses, we know that we need to distribute that negative; think of it as an imaginary and use the distributive property).
Then, we combine our like terms. Be careful when subtracting.
Rearrange the expression.
Combine terms and simplify.

Simplify:
According to exponent laws, if the bases are the same for the two numbers being divided, you keep the base and subtract the exponents.

What is ?
When subtracting polynomials you only subtract the integers in front of like termed variables raised to the same power.
So in this case we take the numbers from in front of the variables and subtract them to get
After subtraction we add the variable to get
.
The answer is .
