Expand the Power Expression: Calculate 9^12 Step by Step

Question

Expand the following equation:

$9^{12}=$

00:00 Identify which expressions are equal

00:04 According to the exponent laws, the multiplication of powers with an equal base (A)

00:07 equals the same base raised to the sum of the exponents (N+M)

00:12 We'll apply this formula to our exercise in order to simplify it

00:19 We can observe that this expression is not equal to the original expression

00:22 We'll continue to simplify all expressions using the same method

00:27 We can observe that this expression is also not equal to the original expression

00:32 This expression equals the original expression, therefore it's correct

00:37 This is the solution

$9^8\times9^4$
