To use the Product Rule of Exponents, we need to remember that the rule states that the product of two powers with the same base is equal to the base raised to the sum of the exponents.
In this case, we have $9^5 \cdot 9^2$. According to the Product Rule of Exponents, this is equal to $9^{5+2}$. Simplifying the exponent, we get $9^7$.
Therefore, an equivalent form of $9^5 \cdot 9^2$ is $9^7$.
Using the Product Rule of Exponents, what is an equivalent form of 9 power of 5⋅9 power of 2?
