Title: Calculate the exponent by substituting the variable value

Grade: 6-b Lesson: S4-L7

Explanation: Hello Students, time to practice and review the steps for the problem.

Lesson Steps

Steps	Problem	Solution
1	Calculate the exponent by substituting the variable value v = - 6	\$ v^-2 \$
2	Now substitute "v" value in the expression	\$ (-6)^-2 \$
3	By using this formula \$ a^-2 = 1/a^2\$	\$ 1/6^2 \$
4	After simplification we get	\$ 1/36 \$
5	Answer	D = \$ 1/36 \$

Steps

Problem

Solution

Calculate the exponent by substituting the variable value
v = - 6

\$ v^-2 \$

Now substitute "v" value in the expression

\$ (-6)^-2 \$

By using this formula \$ a^-2 = 1/a^2\$

\$ 1/6^2 \$

After simplification we get

\$ 1/36 \$

Answer

D = \$ 1/36 \$
