  1. Sorry the first answer is wrong.

    2 is inside the parentheses so it should be

    1/64t^6


  2. Rule 1: raising a nonzero number to the −1 power produces its reciprocal. Thus, a^(-n) = (a^n)^-1 = 1/(a^n)

    Rule 2: (ab)^n = a^n * b^n

    So,

    (2t)^-6 = ((2t)^6)^-1 = 1/(2t)^6 = 1/((2^6)*(t^6)) = 1/(64t^6)


  3. 1/ 2t^6
