Answer:

The simplified expression is 1/w^6.

Explanation:

Using the product of powers exponent rule, we have

w^3 * w^(-9) = w^(3 + (-9)) = w^(-6).

However, the problem says to write the expression using only positive exponents. Here's an example of how to interpret negative exponents as positive exponents:

3^2 = 9

3^1 = 3

3^0 = 1

3^(-1) = 1/3

(and keeps on dividing by three onward)

Here, we see that 3^(-1) = 1/3^1.

Applying the same logic here, we have

w^(-6) = 1/w^6.

I hope this helps!
