Power of a quotient rule

Power of a quotient rule

The power of a quotient rule is used when we want to simplify a fraction that is raised to a power. Every term needs to be raised to a power!
Basic Concepts: Using exponents to describe numbers, Exponent rules, Order of operations with exponents
Related Concepts: Exponents: Product rule (ax)(ay)=a(x+y) (a^x)(a^y)=a^{(x+y)}, Exponents: Division rule axay=a(x−y){a^x \over a^y}=a^{(x-y)}, Exponents: Power rule (ax)y=a(x⋅y) (a^x)^y = a^{(x\cdot y)}, Exponents: Negative exponents
