What is an Expression?

An expression is a mathematical statement which consists of variables, constants and mathematical operators.

The expression is

[tex]\rm \dfrac{3x^3}{12x^{-2}}[/tex]

The expression will be simplified using Exponent Rule

[tex]\rm a^m / a^n = a^{m-n}[/tex]

(3/12) x³⁻⁽⁻²⁾

(1/4) x⁵

The expression is solved as (1/4) x⁵, the solution that Tyna got is x/4, she did the mistake in solving the exponents and she added 3-2 = 1, rather than subtracting.
