The property used to generate the equivalent expression 3^14 from (3 ^ 5)/(3 ^ -9) is the Product of Powers Property. This property states that when multiplying two powers that have the same base, you add the exponents. In this case, we have 3^5 divided by 3^-9. To convert this to an equivalent expression with the same base, we can rewrite the division as multiplication with the reciprocal of the second term. Thus, (3^5)/(3^-9) is equal to 3^5 * 3^9. Applying the Product of Powers Property, we add the exponents to get a new exponent of 14. Hence, (3^5)/(3^-9) is equivalent to 3^14.
