Answer:

The given expression \frac{a^3}{ab^{-4}} after the negative exponents have been eliminated becomes \frac{a^3b^{4}}{ab^{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression \frac{a^3b^{-2}}{ab^{-4}}

We have to write expression after the negative exponents have been eliminated and a ≠ 0 and b ≠ 0.

Consider the given expression \frac{a^3b^{-2}}{ab^{-4}}

We have to eliminate the negative exponents,

Using property of exponents, x^{-m}=\frac{1}{x^m} we have ,

b^{-2}=\frac{1}{b^2} \\\\b^{-4}=\frac{1}{b^4}

Substitute, we get,

\frac{a^3}{ab^{-4}} becomes \frac{a^3b^{4}}{ab^{2}}

Thus, the given expression \frac{a^3}{ab^{-4}} after the negative exponents have been eliminated becomes \frac{a^3b^{4}}{ab^{2}}
