When more than one base is inside parentheses, the power outside the parentheses should be ___________.

• added to each base's power inside

• subtracted from each base's power inside

• multiplied with each base's power inside

• divided by each base's power inside

To make a negative exponent positive, you have to ___________________.

• put it in parentheses

• switch the base and the exponent

• add 10

• move the base and exponent to the other side of the fraction bar
