Simplify.

Rewrite the expression in the form \[9^n\].

\[\dfrac{9^{-3}}{9^{12}}=\]

You should probably repost without all the distractions (blue background, backslashes, braces, etc. It looks like the problem is suggesting that you write the expression in the form 9^n (9 raised to the nth power) and that the expression is 9^(-3) times 9^(12). If that is the case then you are using the first law of exponents (the product of powers with the same base--add the exponents). So it looks like the correct answer is: 9^(-3+12) = 9^(9).
