Q. Simplify. Express your answer using a single exponent.(k−3)−5
Understand Exponent Rule: Understand the exponent rule for powers raised to powers. When you have a power raised to another power, you multiply the exponents.
Apply Rule to Expression: Apply the exponent rule to (k−3)−5. We multiply the exponents −3 and −5. (k−3)−5=k(−3×−5)
Perform Exponent Multiplication: Perform the multiplication of the exponents.−3×−5=15So, (k−3)−5=k15
