Choose the expression that corresponds to the following:
Choose the expression that corresponds to the following:
To solve the problem, we need to apply the power of a product rule of exponents, which states that when you raise a product to a power, you can distribute the exponent to each factor in the product.
Let's break it down with the given problem:
We have the expression . According to the power of a product rule, this expression can be rewritten by raising each individual factor inside the parentheses to the power of 8:
Take the number 3 and raise it to the power of 8:
Take the number 7 and raise it to the power of 8:
Take the number 9 and raise it to the power of 8:
Now, we can use the rule to rewrite the original expression as the product of these terms:
This is the expression you obtain when you apply the power of a product rule to .
