The Property of Negative Integer Exponents states that for any non-zero number a and any negative integer n,
a^(-n) = 1/(a^n)
Applying this property to 3^(-17) yields:
3^(-17) = 1/(3^17)
Applying this property again to 3^(-14) yields:
3^(-14) = 1/(3^14)
Therefore, an expression equivalent to 3^(-17) * 3^(-14) with positive exponents only is:
1/(3^17) * 1/(3^14) or (1/3^17) * (1/3^14)

Apply the Property of Negative Integer Exponents to generate an expression equivalent to 3−178−14 with positive exponents only.(1 point) I'm angry with you!
I apologize if my previous response was not what you were looking for. To generate an expression equivalent to 3^(-17) * 3^(-14) with positive exponents only, we can use the property of negative exponents explained earlier.
We have:
3^(-17) * 3^(-14)
Using the property of negative exponents, we can rewrite this expression as:
1/(3^17) * 1/(3^14)
This simplifies to:
1/(3^17 * 3^14)
Thus, the expression equivalent to 3^(-17) * 3^(-14) with positive exponents only is 1/(3^17 * 3^14).
We have:
3^(-17) * 3^(-14)
Using the property of negative exponents, we can rewrite this expression as:
1/(3^17) * 1/(3^14)
This simplifies to:
1/(3^17 * 3^14)
Thus, the expression equivalent to 3^(-17) * 3^(-14) with positive exponents only is 1/(3^17 * 3^14).
