Apply the properties of integer exponents to generate an equivalent algebraic expression to (4x4y−4)3(x7y3)2

To simplify the expression \((4x^4y^{-4})^3 (x^7y^3)^2\), we will apply the properties of integer exponents.

1. Simplify each part separately:

\((4x^4y^{-4})^3 = 4^3 (x^4)^3 (y^{-4})^3\)
- \(4^3 = 64\)
- \((x^4)^3 = x^{12}\)
- \((y^{-4})^3 = y^{-12}\)

Therefore, \((4x^4y^{-4})^3 = 64x^{12}y^{-12}\).

2. Now simplify the second part:

\((x^7y^3)^2 = (x^7)^2 (y^3)^2\)
- \((x^7)^2 = x^{14}\)
- \((y^3)^2 = y^{6}\)

Therefore, \((x^7y^3)^2 = x^{14}y^6\).

3. Now, combine the two simplified parts:

\[
(64x^{12}y^{-12})(x^{14}y^{6}) = 64x^{12+14}y^{-12+6}
\]

Simplifying the exponents:
- For \(x\): \(12 + 14 = 26\)
- For \(y\): \(-12 + 6 = -6\)

This gives us:
\[
64x^{26}y^{-6}
\]

4. We can express \(y^{-6}\) as \(\frac{1}{y^6}\):

\[
64x^{26} \cdot \frac{1}{y^6} = \frac{64x^{26}}{y^6}
\]

Thus, the simplified expression is:

\[
\frac{64x^{26}}{y^6}
\]

None of the answer choices exactly match this result. However, if the expression options you provided included \(\frac{64x^{2}y^{18}}{1}\), that might suggest that perhaps there was a misunderstanding or error in the exponent calculations.

Please check the options against the expression we derived to find a correct match.

Let's go through the simplification step-by-step one more time to ensure we're clear and correct.

You started with the expression:

\[
(4x^4y^{-4})^3 (x^7y^3)^2
\]

### Step 1: Simplify \((4x^4y^{-4})^3\)

Using the power of a product rule \((a^m b^n)^p = a^{mp} b^{np}\):

\[
(4x^4y^{-4})^3 = 4^3 (x^4)^3 (y^{-4})^3
\]

Calculating each part:

- \(4^3 = 64\)
- \((x^4)^3 = x^{12}\)
- \((y^{-4})^3 = y^{-12}\)

Putting it all together:

\[
(4x^4y^{-4})^3 = 64x^{12}y^{-12}
\]

### Step 2: Simplify \((x^7y^3)^2\)

Using the same power of a product rule:

\[
(x^7y^3)^2 = (x^7)^2 (y^3)^2
\]

Calculating each part:

- \((x^7)^2 = x^{14}\)
- \((y^3)^2 = y^{6}\)

Putting it all together:

\[
(x^7y^3)^2 = x^{14}y^{6}
\]

### Step 3: Combine the results

Now combine the two results:

\[
(64x^{12}y^{-12})(x^{14}y^{6}) = 64x^{12 + 14}y^{-12 + 6}
\]

Calculating the exponents:

- For \(x\): \(12 + 14 = 26\)
- For \(y\): \(-12 + 6 = -6\)

So we have:

\[
64x^{26}y^{-6}
\]

### Step 4: Final expression

Express \(y^{-6}\) as \(\frac{1}{y^6}\):

\[
64x^{26}y^{-6} = \frac{64x^{26}}{y^6}
\]

### Confirming the Result

The simplified expression is:

\[
\frac{64x^{26}}{y^6}
\]
