m9n12
m−9n−12
m−6n−7

Respuesta :

Answer:

  (a)  m^9·n^12

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the simplified form of (m^-3·n^-4)^-3.

Rules of exponents

The relevant rules of exponents are ...

  (ab)^c = (a^c)(b^c)

  (a^b)^c = a^(bc)

Application

Applying these rules to the given expression, we get ...

  [tex](m^{-3}n^{-4})^{-3}=(m^{-3})^{-3}(n^{-4})^{-3}=m^{(-3)(-3)}n^{(-4)(-3)}=\boxed{m^9n^{12}}[/tex]

Additional comment

When an expression is not typeset and exponents are in plain text, the exponents need to be identified using the caret (^) symbol.
