Question

Using laws of exponents, simplify and write the answer in exponential form:

(x) $3^2\times a^2$

Answer 1

Solving through laws of exponents

We know that, $x^m\times y^m={(x\times y)}^m$

$\Rightarrow 3^2\times a^2={(3\times a)}^2={\left(3a\right)}^2$

Hence, exponential form of $3^2\times a^2$ is ${\left(3a\right)}^2$.
