I’m not sure how to solve this problem.

When you divide a variable with an exponent by a variable with an exponent, you subtract the exponents. But you can only combine the exponents if the variable/base is the same(it's different for subtraction/addition).

For example:

  You can't simplify this because they have different variables (x and y)

    You can simplify since they have the same variable of x

When the exponent is negative, you have to move the variable and the exponent to the other side of the fraction to make the exponent positive.

For example:

You can do the problem like this:

  2 negative signs cancel out and becomes +

Your answer is:

step-by-step explanation:

hans did not square the 40-unit side; he merely multiplied it by 2.   incorrect.

the correct answer is a) "catholic church".

the proposals that liberals in mexico made during 1855 were particularly focused on a person's individual rights, such as the freedom of speech, the freedom of conscience, freedom of assembly, and the right to possess weapons.

when the constitution was formally published 2 years later (1857). it also contained an article which permitted education free from any religious influence, the removal of the catholic church institutional privileges, and the sale of property belonging to the church. all of these provisions were clearly against the catholic church interests.
