I can’t see the image files you referenced. Please either type the equation and the four answer choices (just copy/paste the text) or paste the images here.
If you want to try on your own first, here are quick tips for recognizing equivalent expressions with exponentials:
- If you have (ab)^t = a^t b^t.
- If you have (a/b)^t = a^t / b^t.
- a^(−t) = 1 / a^t.
- (a^m)^n = a^(mn).
- You can check candidate equivalents numerically by plugging in two different values of t — if both expressions give the same outputs for two different t values (not trivial ones like t = 0 that might match everyone), they are the same function.
Send the equation and choices and I’ll pick the correct equivalent and show the work.
