how do I multiply exponents? (x-2y-4)-3(y4y3) the numbers are exponents

 

This is how you could have written it      (x^-2y^-4)^-3(y^4y^3)

 

(x2y4)3×(y4y3)=(x23y43)×(y4+3)=(x6y12)×(y7)=x6y12y7=x6y12+7=x6y19

You are welcome, it is important that you completely understand WHY this works.

Maybe you will sort it out better with some of your easier questions that I expect you to post soon :)
