multiply is the answer of this question

Answer 2

`x^4`

Explanation:

We are given the following expression and we are to determine whether it is to be multiplied or divided and perform that operation on it accordingly:

`x^(-3)` ·
`x ^7`

The dot indicates multiplication and we know that when bases are same, the exponents are added.

`x ^(-3)` ·
`x ^7`
`= x ^(( -3 + 7 ))`
`= x ^ 4`

Therefore, the answer is
`x^4`.
