Answer:

Salim can simplify that and the answer will be $a^m^+^n$

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because of the law of multiplying powers, which states that you can add the exponents if the base is the same. So, you just add m and n and put that as the exponent and you will have the answer.

What is equivalent to<br> -9(x - 4 ) - 6x

Lapatulllka [165]

The answer would be -15x+36. To solve this equation, you would first use distributive property and distribute the -9 to the values inside the parentheses (or multiply them). So, you would multiply -9 and x and -9 and -4 to get -9x+36-6x. Then, you combine like terms, which are -9x and -6x to get -15x. You can't simplify any further without knowing the value of x. Hope this helps!
