Use the Power Rule of Exponents to create a simplified equivalent expression for (19^4)^9

Question

.

Answer 1

To simplify the expression \((19^4)^9\) using the Power Rule of Exponents, we apply the rule that states \((a^m)^n = a^{m \cdot n}\).

In this case:

\[ (19^4)^9 = 19^{4 \cdot 9} \]

Now, we calculate \(4 \cdot 9\):

\[ 4 \cdot 9 = 36 \]

So, we have:

\[ (19^4)^9 = 19^{36} \]

Thus, the simplified equivalent expression is:

\[ \boxed{19^{36}} \]
