Given:
The expression -
- [(- 3)² × (- 3)⁻ ⁴] ÷ (- 3)⁻²
What To Find:
We have to -
- Simplify the expression by using the law of exponents.
How To Find:
To find we have to -
- We have to simplify the base and powers.
- Observe the expression.
- Use the laws of exponents wherever possible.
- Solve the expression.
Solution:
[(- 3)² × (- 3)⁻ ⁴] ÷ (- 3)⁻²
Solve the brackets, by using the law:
⇒ aᵐ × aⁿ = aᵐ ⁺ ⁿ
Where -
- a = - 3
- m = 2
- n = - 4
Substitute,
⇒ - 3² ⁺ ⁽⁻ ⁴⁾ ÷ (- 3)⁻²
Solve the exponents,
⇒ - 3⁻² ÷ - 3⁻²
Use the law:
⇒ aᵐ ÷ aⁿ = aᵐ ⁻ ⁿ
Where -
- a = - 3
- m = - 2
- n = - 2
Substitute
⇒ - 3⁻² ⁻ ⁽⁻²⁾
Solve the exponents,
⇒ - 3⁰
Use the law:
⇒ a⁰ = 1
Where -
- a = - 3
Solve,
⇒ 1
Final Answer:
∴ Thus, the answer is 1 after simplifying the expression.
