Answer:

(b) both powers should be in the denominator with positive exponents

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rule of exponents is ...

a^-b = 1/a^b

The correct simplification is ...

$x^{-3}y^{-9}=\dfrac{1}{x^3}\cdot\dfrac{1}{y^9}=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{x^3y^9}}$

Both variables should have positive exponents in the denominator.

The length of one side of a square field is represented by the expression 3-7x.

Juliette [100K]

They give us the length of side of the square which is 3-7x.

To get an expression for the perimeter that is expressed as a product we have to multiply the expression 3-7x by four since every square has four sides. This will give us an expression of 4(3-7x). We than can use the distributive property to multiply everything inside the parenthesis by 4. This will give us an expression of 12-28x.
