Question

the product of two number is (-5)raised to the power-1 .if one of the number is (-3)raised to the power-1, find the other​

Answer 1

Let two numbers be x and y

Hence

$xy = { - 5}^{ - 1} = \frac{ - 1}{5}$

one number is given

Hence

$y = { - 3}^{ - 1} = \frac{ - 1}{3}$

Put in 1

$xy = \frac{ - 1}{5} \\ \frac{ - 1}{3} x = \frac{ - 1}{5} \\ x = \frac{3}{5}$
