Q. Write the expression as a whole number with a negative exponent. Do not evaluate the expression.8251
Understand Expression: Understand the given expression.The given expression is 8251. We need to rewrite this expression as a whole number with a negative exponent without evaluating it.
Apply Negative Exponent Rule: Apply the negative exponent rule. The negative exponent rule states that a−m=am1. To apply this rule to the given expression, we rewrite 8251 as 82−5.
Check Final Expression: Check the final expression.The final expression is 82−5. This is a whole number (82) with a negative exponent (−5), which is what was asked for in the prompt.
