Ben simplified this expression (2x^-4y^7 / 3x^3y^2)^3 Analyze bens work. did he simplify the expression correctly? If not, what was his mistake? Yes, he is correct. No, he needed to add the exponents of powers of the same base in the first step. No, he needed to apply the exponent to all factors in the product in the second step.

-c

No , he needed to apply the exponents to all factors in the product in the second step .

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
