• Step 2: Apply the Power of a Quotient Rule

The power of a quotient formula is $\frac{a^m}{b^m} = \left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^m$.

Substitute $a = 7$, $b = 9$, and $m = 10$ into this formula, and we have:

$\frac{7^{10}}{9^{10}} = \left(\frac{7}{9}\right)^{10}$.

We can see that this transformation results in the expression $\left(\frac{7}{9}\right)^{10}$, which matches answer choice 1.

Step 2: Apply the formula for negative exponents.

The formula $a^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n}$ allows us to rewrite a reciprocal power as a negative exponent. This means the expression $\frac{1}{6^7}$ can be rewritten as $6^{-7}$.

Step 3: Conclude with the answer.

Therefore, the correct expression is $\boxed{6^{-7}}$, which corresponds to choice 2 in the given options.

• Step 3: Apply the formula $\frac{1}{a^n} = a^{-n}$ to the expression $\frac{1}{3^2}$.

Now, let's work through these steps:

Step 1: We have $\frac{1}{3^2}$ where 3 is the base and 2 is the exponent.

Step 2: Using the formula, convert the denominator $3^2$ to $3^{-2}$.

• Step 3: This expression, $20^{-2}$, represents $\frac{1}{20^2}$ using a negative exponent.

Therefore, the expression $\frac{1}{20^2}$ can be expressed as $20^{-2}$, which aligns with choice 1.

To solve this problem, we need to simplify the expression $\frac{5^7 \times 4^7}{19^7}$.

We start by applying the property of exponents which states that for any numbers $a$, $b$, and $c$, $a^c \times b^c = (a \times b)^c$. In this case, we have:

$5^7 \times 4^7 = (5 \times 4)^7$

Thus, the original expression becomes:

$\frac{(5 \times 4)^7}{19^7}$

Now, using the exponent rule for powers of a fraction, $\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^c = \frac{a^c}{b^c}$, this further simplifies as:

$\left(\frac{5 \times 4}{19}\right)^7$

Therefore, when we look at the answer choices, both options:

• $\frac{(5 \times 4)^7}{19^7}$
• $\left(\frac{5 \times 4}{19}\right)^7$

are equivalent to our simplified expression. This corresponds to choice B and choice C in the given question. Therefore, both B and C are correct.

Applying this to the problem, considering the expression $\frac{6^5}{(13 \times 4)^5}$ all raised to the power of 5 can be rewritten, using our formula, as a single fraction raised to the same power:
$\left(\frac{6}{13 \times 4}\right)^5$.

This simplifies the entire expression to a clear fraction raised to the power 5. Therefore, the corresponding expression to the original problem is:

$\left(\frac{6}{13 \times 4}\right)^5$.

Now, we see this as a single fraction raised to the same power, which can be expressed using the power of a fraction rule:

$\frac{4^3}{(5 \times 7)^3} = \left(\frac{4}{5 \times 7}\right)^3$

Thus, the expression given is equivalent to

$\left(\frac{4}{5 \times 7}\right)^3$.

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

$(6^6 \times 11^6) = (6 \times 11)^6$ and $(5^6 \times 13^6) = (5 \times 13)^6$.

Step 2: Simplifying the expression, we get:
$\frac{(6^6 \times 11^6)}{(5^6 \times 13^6)} = \frac{(6 \times 11)^6}{(5 \times 13)^6} = \left(\frac{6 \times 11}{5 \times 13}\right)^6$.

Therefore, the correct answer is$\textbf{B + C are correct}$.

To simplify the expression $\frac{5^{10}\times8^{10}}{4^{10}\times7^{10}}$, we start by applying the property of exponents: $(a \times b)^n = a^n \times b^n$.

Step 1: Rewrite the expression. Notice that both the numerator and the denominator consist of two numbers, each raised to the power of 10.

$\frac{5^{10} \times 8^{10}}{4^{10} \times 7^{10}} = \frac{(5 \times 8)^{10}}{(4 \times 7)^{10}}$

Now, we notice we can apply the equality for exponential simplification:

$\left(\frac{5 \times 8}{4 \times 7}\right)^{10} = \frac{(5 \times 8)^{10}}{(4 \times 7)^{10}}$

Concluding, the simplified expression of the given problem is equivalent to option "1":

The expression simplifies to $\frac{\left(5\times8\right)^{10}}{\left(4\times7\right)^{10}}$, which aligns perfectly with choice id="1".
