What is the capital of Egypt? ( Cairo )

1 Answer

  1. To simplify the expression ( frac{12^2}{6^2} ), we can start by rewriting it:

    [

    frac{12^2}{6^2} = left(frac{12}{6}right)^2 = 2^2

    ]

    Now let’s evaluate the options given:

    1. 2^(-3): This is not equal to ( 2^2 ).
    2. 2^(-5): This is not equal to ( 2^2 ).
    3. (2^(-2))^(-1): This simplifies to ( 2^{2} ) (using the power of a power rule: ((-2) times (-1) = 2)).
    4. 2^2: This is directly equal to ( 2^2 ).

    Thus, the expressions equivalent to ( frac{12^2}{6^2} ) are:

    (2^(-2))^(-1)

    2^2
