Jay said that by the quotient of powers property zero to the fifth power divided by zero to the second power equals zero to the fifth power -2 equals zero to the third power which equals zero is this correct explain

Respuesta :

Answer:

No, Jay is not correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Quotient of powers property:

For any non-zero number a and any integer x and y:

[tex]\frac{a^x}{a^y}=a^{x-y}[/tex]

According to by the quotient of powers property

[tex]\frac{0^5}{0^2}=0^{5-2}\Rightarrow 0^3=0[/tex]

We need to check whether Jay is correct or not.

No, Jay is not correct because quotient of powers property is used for non-zero numbers.

[tex]\frac{0^m}{0^n}=\frac{0}{0}=unde fined[/tex]

Therefore, Jay is not correct.
