Q. Write the expression as a whole number with a negative exponent. Do not evaluate the expression.7281
Identify base and exponent: Identify the base and the exponent in the given expression.In 7281, 7 is the base raised to the exponent 28, and the entire expression is in the denominator, indicating a negative exponent when rewritten.Base: 7Exponent: 28
Apply negative exponent rule: Apply the negative exponent rule to rewrite the expression.The negative exponent rule states that a−m=am1. Therefore, to write 7281 as a whole number with a negative exponent, we apply this rule in reverse.7281 becomes 7−28.
