Rewrite the expression in the form b^(n). (b^((1)/(5)))/(b)=◻

Recognize properties of exponents: Recognize the properties of exponents. When dividing powers with the same base, subtract the exponents. (b^(1/5))/b = b^(1/5 - 1) Divide powers with the same base: Subtract the exponents. 1/5 - 1 is the same as 1/5 - 5/5, which equals -4/5. b^(1/5 - 1) = b^(-4/5) Subtract exponents: Write the final answer. The expression in the form b^n is b^(-4/5).

Q. Rewrite the expression in the form

b^{n}

\newline

\frac{b^{\frac{1}{5}}}{b}=\square

Recognize properties of exponents: Recognize the properties of exponents. $\newline$ When dividing powers with the same base, subtract the exponents. $\newline$ $\frac{b^{\frac{1}{5}}}{b} = b^{\frac{1}{5} - 1}$
Divide powers with the same base: Subtract the exponents. $\newline$ $\frac{1}{5} - 1$ is the same as $\frac{1}{5} - \frac{5}{5}$ , which equals $-\frac{4}{5}$ . $\newline$ $b^{\frac{1}{5} - 1} = b^{-\frac{4}{5}}$
Subtract exponents: Write the final answer. $\newline$ The expression in the form $b^n$ is $b^{(-4/5)}$ .
