Q. Select all the expressions that are equivalent to 73×737^{-3} \times 7^{-3}. \newlineMulti-select Choices:\newline(A) 176\frac{1}{7^{-6}}\newline(B) 767^{-6}\newline(C) 176\frac{1}{7^{6}}\newline(D) 179\frac{1}{7^{9}}
  1. Calculate product: Step 11: Calculate the product of 737^{-3} and 737^{-3}. We know that when multiplying powers with the same base, we add the exponents. 73×73=7(3+3)=767^{-3} \times 7^{-3} = 7^{(-3 + -3)} = 7^{-6}
  2. Compare with choices: Step 22: Compare the result with the given choices.\newlineWe have 767^{-6} from our calculation. Now, let's match it with the choices:\newline(A) 1/761/7^{-6} is equivalent to 767^6, which is not the same as 767^{-6}.\newline(B) 767^{-6} matches exactly with our result.\newline(C) 1/761/7^6 is the reciprocal of 767^6, which is not the same as 767^{-6}.\newline(D) 1/791/7^9 is the reciprocal of 797^9, which is also not the same as 767^{-6}.
