Express with same base: We start by expressing all the terms in the expression with the same base, which is 3, because 9 and 27 are both powers of 3. 9=32 and 27=33
Rewrite using base of 3: Rewrite the expression using the base of 3.(92y×3y)/(27−3y)= ((32)2y×3y)/((33)−3y)
Apply power rules: Apply the power of a power rule (am)n=am∗n and the power of a product rule am×an=am+n.((32)(2y)×3y)/((33)−(y)/(3)) = (32∗2y×3y)/(33∗(−(y)/(3))) = (34y×3y)/(3−y)
Combine exponents: Combine the exponents in the numerator using the power of a product rule. 34y×3y=34y+y=35y
Apply quotient rule: Now we have: 3−y35yApply the quotient of powers rule am/an=a(m−n).3−y35y=3(5y−(−y))=3(5y+y)=36y
Final simplified form: The expression is now simplified to: 36y This is the final simplified form of the given expression.
