Answer:

3⁴

Explanation:

Hey there! To evaluate
\displaystyle \large{3^(-3) \cdot 3^7}, we can simply do by using one of exponent laws.

Laws of Exponent


\displaystyle \large{a^m \cdot a^n = a^(m+n)}

Hence, let m = -3 and n = 7. Therefore,
\displaystyle \large{3^(-3) \cdot 3^7 = 3^(-3+7) \to 3^4}

Let me know if you have any questions regarding the exponent!
