Simplify the expression.

1.((3)/(2b^4))^3

((27)/(8b^12))

2.((t^4)/(10y^4))^-4

(10000y^16)/(t^16)

3. Does the rule y = -3(4^x) represent an exponential function?

Yes?

1.((3)/(2b^4))^3

((27)/(8b^12)) Yes

2.((t^4)/(10y^4))^-4

(10000y^16)/(t^16) Yes

3. Does the rule y = -3(4^x) represent an exponential function?

an exponential function is a constant raised to the power of the argument.
So Yes
