Fully simplify and write your answer in exponential form with positive exponents only.

Question

z^-9\cdotz^-8=

Answer 1

Using the rules of exponents, we can simplify this expression as follows:

z^-9⋅z^-8 = z^(-9-8) = z^-17

Therefore, the fully simplified exponential form with positive exponents only is z^-17.
