Which expression is correctly developed to use the Power Rule of Exponents? 12^9 (7^4)^8 (−5)^0 (7^8)⋅(7^10)

7 answers

To use the Power Rule of Exponents effectively, we need to identify which of the expressions can be simplified using the Power Rule. The Power Rule states that (am)n=amn, and for multiplication, it states that aman=am+n.

Let's analyze the given expressions:

  1. 129 - This expression is already in the simplest form and doesn't invoke the Power Rule.

  2. (74)8 - This can be simplified using the Power Rule: (74)8=748=732.

  3. (5)0 - This expression evaluates to 1, since any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is 1. It does not involve using the Power Rule as stated.

  4. (78)(710) - This can also be simplified using the multiplication rule: (78)(710)=78+10=718.

Thus, the expressions that are correctly developed using the Power Rule are (74)8 and (78)(710).

If you're looking for the expression that explicitly shows the use of the Power Rule, then (74)8 is a direct application of the rule (am)n. On the other hand, (78)(710) exemplifies the product rule for exponents. Therefore, both expressions accurately apply exponent rules, but in the context of the Power Rule specifically, (74)8 is the clearest instance.

What exponent would make the two expressions equivalent: (3^3)^x=3^24 ?(1 point) Responses 15 8 21 27

To find the value of x that makes the two expressions equivalent, we can use the Power Rule of Exponents:

(33)x=33x

Setting this equal to the right side of the equation:

33x=324

Since the bases are the same, we can set the exponents equal to each other:

3x=24

Now, solve for x:

x=243=8

Thus, the value of x that makes the expressions equivalent is 8.
