Video Solution

Solution Steps

00:00 Simplify the following problem
00:03 A product where each factor is raised to the power of that factor (N)
00:08 Can be converted to parentheses of the entire product raised to the power of the factor (N)
00:16 Apply this formula to our exercise
00:24 This is the solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve the problem, we will use the Power of a Product rule as described:

  • Step 1: Recognize that each factor x x , 9 9 , and y y is raised to the power of 7 in the expression x7×97×y7 x^7 \times 9^7 \times y^7 .
  • Step 2: Apply the exponent rule which states (a×b×c)n=an×bn×cn(a \times b \times c)^n = a^n \times b^n \times c^n.
  • Step 3: Rewrite the given expression as a single term raised to the 7th power: (x×9×y)7 (x \times 9 \times y)^7 .

This step successfully combines all the individual terms under one exponent using the rule. Therefore, the expression simplifies to:

(x×9×y)7 (x \times 9 \times y)^7

Upon examining the choices, the corresponding expression matches the option (x×9×y)7 \left(x \times 9 \times y\right)^7 .

Thus, the correct solution to the problem is (x×9×y)7 \left(x \times 9 \times y\right)^7 .

Answer

(x×9×y)7 \left(x\times9\times y\right)^7
