Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi!
Here is your answer,
I will explain in step by step,
[tex] {x}^{9} = {12}^{2} \times {12}^{7} [/tex]
Here we can simplify this further using this law,
[tex] {a}^{m} \times {a}^{n} = {a}^{m + n} [/tex]
So we will get,
[tex] {x}^{9} = {12}^{7 + 2} \\ {x}^{9} = {12}^{9} [/tex]
Since the powers are same we can cancel it out and we will get,
[tex]x = 12[/tex]
(Hope this answer helped :))
