Answer :
Using exponent properties, the equivalent expression is:
[tex]\frac{y^{18}}{z^{18}}[/tex]
What is the equivalent expression?
The original expression is:
[tex]\left[\frac{y^{-3}z^5}{z^{-4}y^6}\right]^{-2}[/tex]
When two terms that are divided have the same base and different exponents, we keep the base and subtract the exponents, hence:
[tex]\left[\frac{y^{-3}z^5}{z^{-4}y^6}\right]^{-2} = [y^{-3 - 6}z^{5 - (-4)}]^{-2} = [y^{-9}z^9]^{-2}[/tex]
The negative exponent at the numerator goes to the denominator, hence:
[tex][y^{-9}z^9]^{-2} = \left[\frac{z^9}{y^9}\right]^{-2}[/tex]
The negative outer exponent means that we have to exchange the numerator and denominator, hence:
[tex]\left[\frac{z^9}{y^9}\right]^{-2} = \left[\frac{y^9}{z^9}\right]^{2}[/tex]
Then both numerator and denominator exponents multiply by 2, hence the equivalent expression is:
[tex]\frac{y^{18}}{z^{18}}[/tex]
