Answer:
Explanation:
You want to rewrite the power of a power two ways: as a product, and as a single power.
Exponents
An exponent tells you how many times a factor is repeated.
In the first expression, the exponent of 2 tells you the factor 3⁴ will be repeated 2 times in the product:
3⁴·3⁴
Each of the exponents of 4 tell you the factor 3 is repeated 4 times in the product:
(3·3·3·3)·(3·3·3·3)
To write this as a single power of 3, you must recognize that the factor 3 is repeated 4+4=8 times in the product. The power of 3 you want is ...
3⁸
