Write the expression with a single rational exponent 1/x to the -1 power

Answer :

Given:

[tex]\frac{1}{x}[/tex]

To Determine: The simplified fraction to its rational exponent to the power of -1

Solution

Apply the exponent rule below

[tex]\frac{1}{a^n}=a^{-n}[/tex]

Apply the exponent rule above to the given fraction

[tex]\frac{1}{x}=x^{-1}[/tex]

Hence, 1/x = x ⁻¹
