Q. Simplify. Express your answer using a single exponent.(9m9)2
Apply power rule: Apply the power of a power rule to 9m9^2. The power of a power rule states that ab^c = a^{b*c}. We will apply this rule to both the numerical part and the variable part of the expression. 9m9^2 = 9^2 * m9^2
Calculate 92: Calculate 92. 92=9×9=81
Calculate (m9)2: Calculate (m9)2 using the power of a power rule.(m9)2=m(9∗2)=m18
Combine results: Combine the results from Step 2 and Step 3.The simplified expression is 81×m18.
