Q. Which expression is equivalent to (79)2(7^9)^2?\newlineChoices:\newline(A) 1718\frac{1}{7^{18}}\newline(B) 7117^{11}\newline(C) 1711\frac{1}{7^{11}}\newline(D) 7187^{18}
  1. Simplify Power Rule: Simplify the expression (79)2(7^9)^2 using the power of a power rule.\newlineThe power of a power rule states that (am)n=amn(a^m)^n = a^{m*n}. Therefore, we can simplify (79)2(7^9)^2 as follows:\newline(79)2=792=718(7^9)^2 = 7^{9*2} = 7^{18}
  2. Match Simplified Expression: Match the simplified expression to the given choices.\newlineWe have simplified the expression to 7187^{18}. Now we need to see which of the given choices matches this expression.\newline(A) 1718\frac{1}{7^{18}} is not correct because it represents the reciprocal of 7187^{18}.\newline(B) 7117^{11} is not correct because the exponent is 1111, not 1818.\newline(C) 1711\frac{1}{7^{11}} is not correct because it represents the reciprocal of 7117^{11} and the exponent is incorrect.\newline(D) 7187^{18} is correct because it matches our simplified expression exactly.
