When you are multiplying 2 numbers with exponents, you need to add the exponent. When you multiply an exponent with an exponent, you multiply them.
So,
(3^2 x 7^4) ^9
First multiply the base and add exponents = ( 21^6) ^9
= 21 ^6x9
21^54
The same rule applies for variables, just pretend there is an imaginary 1.

Step-by-step explanation:
Every 3 days 1 pound of hay is used every day 1 pound of grain is used. There are 10 pounds of grain and 8 pounds of hay. On the 6th day there are 6 pounds of hay left and 6 pounds of grain left.
Find the base price per pound, $15/11, or $1.36 = 1lb, then multiply it by 16, 16 x 1.36 = $21.82. Now just subtract $20 from $21.82 = $1.82. So, You would save, on average, $1.82 by buying the sale.
