$\frac{1}{2} x + 3 x^{2}$

Step 1

Move $x^{1}$ in $\frac{\frac{1}{2} x}{1}$ to the denominator and change the exponent from positive to negative.

$\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{x^{- 1}}$

Step 2

Move $x^{2}$ in $\frac{3 x^{2}}{1}$ to the denominator and change the exponent from positive to negative.

$\frac{3}{x^{- 2}}$

Step 3

Rewrite the expression with the negative exponents.

$\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{x^{- 1}} + \frac{3}{x^{- 2}}$
