Lauren simplified the expression (m Superscript negative 7 Baseline) Superscript negative 5 as shown. (m Superscript negative 7 Baseline) Superscript negative 5 = m Superscript negative 7 + (negative 5) Baseline = m Superscript negative 12 Baseline = StartFraction 1 Over m Superscript 12 Baseline EndFraction Which statement explains Lauren’s error? She should have subtracted the exponents instead of adding them. She should have multiplied the exponents instead of adding them. She should have found –2, not negative 12, as the exponent when she added. She should have written m Superscript negative 12 as m Superscript 12.

She should have multiplied the exponents instead of adding them.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lauren simplified the expression (m Superscript negative 7 Baseline) Superscript negative 5 as shown.

(m Superscript negative 7 Baseline) Superscript negative 5 = m Superscript negative 7 + (negative 5) Baseline = m Superscript negative 12 Baseline = StartFraction 1 Over m Superscript 12 Baseline EndFraction

Correct solution:

Correct answer option describing the error made:

step-by-step explanation:

use pothagarean therom

a^2+b^2=c^2 so first ac

acm is a right triangle because c= 90°

and am (the hypotenuse or c) =16+9 =25

but there is not enough info we need another angle or side length

where's the diagram?
