B) 172 ⋅ (−4)−3
SO THE ANSWER IS B
Yes, the answer is B) 172 ⋅ (−4)−3. This expression has only positive exponents and was generated by applying the properties of integer exponents.
1/7^2 ⋅ (−4)^−3
To simplify the expression and rewrite it with only positive exponents, we can use the properties of integer exponents.
Using the property that (a^m)^n = a^(m*n), we can rewrite the expression as:
(1/7^2) * (−4)^−3 = (1/49) * (−4)^−3
Now, using the property a^−n = 1/(a^n), we can rewrite the expression as:
(1/49) * (1/(−4)^3)
Simplifying further, we have:
(1/49) * (1/−64)
Now, using the property a^−n = 1/(a^n), we can rewrite the expression as:
1 / (49 * 64)
Finally, simplifying the expression, we have:
1 / 3136
So, an equivalent expression with only positive exponents is 1/3136.

Which of the following is the equivalent expression to (15^−3 ⋅ 4^7)^0/4^−3 that has been generated by applying the Properties of Integer Exponents
Responses
A 164
Start Fraction 1 over 64 end fraction
B 64
C 1⋅4−3
1 times 4 negative cubed
D 60/4^−3
First, let's simplify the expression using the properties of integer exponents:
(15^−3 ⋅ 4^7)^0/4^−3
Using the property a^0 = 1, we can simplify the numerator:
15^−3 ⋅ 4^7 = 1/15^3 ⋅ 4^7
Now, using the property (a⋅b)^c = a^c ⋅ b^c, we can rewrite the expression as:
(1/15^3 ⋅ 4^7)^0/4^−3 = (1/15^3)^0 ⋅ (4^7/4^−3)
Since any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1, the first term simplifies further:
(1/15^3)^0 = 1
Simplifying the remaining term in the denominator:
4^7/4^−3 = 4^(7+3) = 4^10
Putting it all together:
(15^−3 ⋅ 4^7)^0/4^−3 = 1/(4^10)
The equivalent expression with only positive exponents is 1/4^10, which can be simplified as 1/1048576.
So, the correct answer is:
A) 1/64

2^12⋅9^−12/2^9⋅9^−10
To simplify the expression and rewrite it with only positive exponents using the properties of integer exponents, let's break it down step by step:
(2^−3 ⋅ 9^3)^−4/2^9 ⋅ 9^−10
Using the property a^−n = 1/(a^n), we can rewrite the expression as:
(1/2^3 ⋅ 9^3)^−4/2^9 ⋅ 9^−10
Now, using the property (a⋅b)^n = a^n ⋅ b^n, we can simplify parts of the expression:
(1/8 ⋅ 9^3)^−4/2^9 ⋅ 9^−10
Simplifying further,
(1/8 ⋅ 729)^−4/2^9 ⋅ 9^−10
Now, we use the property (a/b)^n = a^n/b^n to separate the numerator and denominator expressions:
(1/8)^−4 ⋅ 729^−4 / (2^9 ⋅ 9^−10)
Using the property (a^m)^n = a^(m*n), we simplify each base individually:
(8^-4 ⋅ 9^-4) / (2^9 ⋅ 9^-10)
Now, using the property a^−n = 1/(a^n), we simplify further:
(1/8^4 ⋅ 1/9^4) / (2^9 ⋅ 1/9^10)
Simplifying exponents:
(1/4096 ⋅ 1/6561) / (512 ⋅ 1/3486784401)
Using the property a/b ÷ c/d = (a/b) ⋅ (d/c), we can rewrite the expression as:
(1/4096 ⋅ 1/6561) ⋅ (3486784401 / 512)
Simplifying numerators and denominators:
1/25937424601 ⋅ 3486784401 / 512
Finally, simplifying further:
3486784401 / (25937424601 * 512)
The equivalent expression with only positive exponents is 2^12⋅9^(-12) / 2^9⋅9^(-10).
So, the correct answer is:
D) 2^12⋅9^(-12) / 2^9⋅9^(-10)
