Y^6. y^-9

Write answer with positive exponent only.

is the answer y^54?

The answer is y^54 yes

When ur multiplying exponents with the same base, u keep the base and add the exponents

y^6 * y^-9 = y^ (6 + (-9) = y^ (6 - 9) = y^-3 ... but we want a positive exponent ... so we use the exponent rule : a^-b = 1 / (a^b)

so y^-3 = 1 / y^3
