Full solution

Q. Simplify. Express your answer using a single exponent.\newline(7s9)2(7s^9)^2
  1. Apply Power Rule: Apply the power of a power rule to (7s9)2(7s^9)^2. The power of a power rule states that when raising a power to another power, you multiply the exponents. In this case, we have an exponent of 22 being applied to both 77 and s9s^9. (7s9)2=72×(s9)2(7s^9)^2 = 7^2 \times (s^9)^2
  2. Calculate 727^2: Calculate 727^2.\newline727^2 is 77 multiplied by itself.\newline72=7×7=497^2 = 7 \times 7 = 49
  3. Calculate (s9)2(s^9)^2: Calculate (s9)2(s^9)^2. Using the power of a power rule, we multiply the exponents 99 and 22. (s9)2=s(9×2)=s18(s^9)^2 = s^{(9 \times 2)} = s^{18}
  4. Combine Results: Combine the results from Step 22 and Step 33.\newlineWe have 4949 for 727^2 and s18s^{18} for (s9)2(s^9)^2, so we combine them to get the final simplified expression.\newline(7s9)2=49s18(7s^9)^2 = 49s^{18}
