Lesson: Properties
Solution
Solution Steps
To determine which expressions are equivalent to \(7^{-6} \cdot 2^{-6}\), we can use the properties of exponents. Specifically, we can combine the bases when the exponents are the same.
Solution Approach
Combine the bases of the exponents using the property \(a^{-m} \cdot b^{-m} = (a \cdot b)^{-m}\).
Simplify the combined expression and compare it to the given options.
Step 1: Combine the Exponents
We start with the expression \(7^{-6} \cdot 2^{-6}\). Using the property of exponents, we can combine the bases:
\[
7^{-6} \cdot 2^{-6} = (7 \cdot 2)^{-6} = 14^{-6}
\]
Step 2: Evaluate the Given Options
Next, we evaluate the provided options to see which are equivalent to \(14^{-6}\):
