Question
If $a = 2, b = 3$, find the values of: $\big(\text{a}^{\text{a}}+\text{b}^{\text{b}}\big)^{-1}$
✓
Answer
Given, $a = 2$ and $b = 3$
$\big(\text{a}^{\text{a}}+\text{b}^{\text{b}}\big)^{-1}=(2^2+3^3)^{-1}$
$=(4+27)^{-1}$
$=(31)^{-1}$
$=\frac{1}{31}$
$\big(\text{a}^{\text{a}}+\text{b}^{\text{b}}\big)^{-1}=(2^2+3^3)^{-1}$
$=(4+27)^{-1}$
$=(31)^{-1}$
$=\frac{1}{31}$
