-15x^4 / 3x^9

There are no negative exponents in the question. An exponent is a power.

= (-15/3) * ( x ⁴/x ⁹)

= -5 * (1/x ⁵)

= -5 / x ⁵

OR

= (-15/3) * ( x ⁴/x ⁹)

= -5 * x ^-5

= -5 * (1/x ⁵)

= -5 / x ⁵

I think this is Albanian, this is the Google translation
"Verify that the congruent triangles, congruent angles pergjysmoret the segments are congruent."
I am sorry Eliza but this does not appear to be a whole question. Some of it is missing.
Also, "pergjysmoret" did not translate at all. It means nothing in English. Sorry.

Unë mendoj se ky është shqipja, kjo është përkthim Google
"Verifikoni se trekëndëshat në harmoni, kënde harmoni pergjysmoret segmentet janë në harmoni."
Unë jam i keq Eliza, por kjo nuk duket të jetë një pyetje e tërë. Disa e saj është zhdukur.
Gjithashtu, "pergjysmoret" nuk përkthehet fare. Kjo do të thotë asgjë në gjuhën angleze. Më vjen keq.

Negative 4 over 3 divided by negative 1

-4/3 divided by -1
a negative divided by a negative is positive
and
anything divided by 1 stays the same
so
=4/3
= 1 and a third

What is the ratio 78/83 simplify to?

83 is a prime number so this cannot be simplified.
Also
If you a fraction into your calc and then press = your calculator will simplify it for you.

They are fractions that have the same values but different numbers like

1/2 and 2/4 and 5/10

by looking at the graph or by using calculus.

first derivative = 0
second derivative >0 for minima
second derivative <0 for maxima
If second derivative =0 you have to think some more.

My interpretation

You have started with a right angles isosceles triangle with an hypotenuse of 12foot

Now you want to extend the 'hypotenuse' by 10 feet so it no longer will be a right angled triangle.

Now the answer will depend on whether you are extending from just one end or a some from both ends.

Multiply both sides by 3

and

How did you enter the divide by sign?

I'll show you with an example

5.3*10 ¹² * 6.9*10 ^-7

= 5.3*6.9*10 ¹² *10 ^-7

= 36.57 * 10 ^(12+-7)

= 3.657 * 10 ¹* 10 ⁵

= 3.657 * 10 ⁶

OR, you could just do it on your calcuator.
