Question

3^3 / 3^2 * (3^3)^2

Answer 1

When dividing exponents you can just subtract the exponents.
When raising an exponent to another power you multiply the exponents.
So here you would have when you simplify:
3^1*3^6
When multiplying exponents you can just add them, so you're answer would be
3^7

Answer 2

Get it?

Answer 3

No. Where are you getting 3^1*3^6? I got 3^3 / 3^8, then ended up with 3^-5

Answer 4

Could you write it out step by step?

Answer 5

Have you attempted it?

Answer 6

Yeah. I already worked it out.

Answer 7

Oh, so what was your final answer?

Answer 8

3^-5, but at the top, the paper states, "Your answer should contain only positive exponents," and I've only gotten negative exponents so far.

Answer 9

You messed up somewhere then

Answer 10

Yeah. I'd like to know where...

Answer 11

Care to help?

Answer 12

This is your problem right?
\[\frac{3^3}{3^2}*(3^3)^2\]

Answer 13

No.
