Use the Power Rule of Exponents to create a simplified equivalent expression for (194)9

.

1 answer

The Power Rule of Exponents states that \( (a^m)^n = a^{m \cdot n} \).

In your expression, \( (194)^9 \) can be simplified but since it’s already in a simple form, we can use the property of exponents directly:

  1. Rewrite the base: \( 194 \) can be considered as \( 194^1 \).
  2. According to the Power Rule, we can write \( (194^1)^9 \) which simplifies to \( 194^{1 \cdot 9} \).
  3. Therefore, this simplifies to \( 194^9 \).

So, the simplified equivalent expression for \( (194)^9 \) is simply:

\[ 194^9 \]

There is no further simplification since it is already in its simplest exponential form.
