Full solution

Q. Rewrite using a single positive exponent.\newline(56)6 \left(5^{-6}\right)^{6}
  1. Apply power rule: Apply the power of a power rule.\newlineThe power of a power rule states that (am)n=a(mn)(a^m)^n = a^{(m*n)}. In this case, a=5a = 5, m=6m = -6, and n=6n = 6.\newlineSo, (56)6=5(66)(5^{-6})^6 = 5^{(-6*6)}.
  2. Multiply exponents: Multiply the exponents.\newline6×6=36-6 \times 6 = -36.\newlineSo, 5(6×6)=5365^{(-6\times6)} = 5^{-36}.
  3. Convert to positive exponent: Convert the negative exponent to a positive exponent.\newlineA negative exponent indicates the reciprocal of the base raised to the positive of that exponent. Therefore, 5365^{-36} can be rewritten as 1/(536)1/(5^{36}).
  4. Write final answer: Write the final answer.\newlineThe expression (56)6(5^{-6})^6 is simplified to 1536\frac{1}{5^{36}} using a single positive exponent.
