Identify the given expression
We are given the algebraic expression:
\[
v^{-3} 8^{0} x^{9}
\]
Our goal is to simplify this expression so that it contains only positive exponents.
Apply the zero exponent rule
The zero exponent rule states that any non-zero base raised to the power of \(0\) is equal to \(1\):
\[
a^0 = 1 \quad (a
eq 0)
\]
Applying this rule to \(8^0\):
\[
8^0 = 1
\]
Substituting this back into the expression gives:
\[
v^{-3} \cdot 1 \cdot x^{9} = v^{-3} x^{9}
\]
Apply the negative exponent rule
The negative exponent rule states that a base raised to a negative power is equal to its reciprocal raised to the positive power:
\[
b^{-n} = \frac{1}{b^n} \quad (b
eq 0)
\]
Applying this rule to \(v^{-3}\):
\[
v^{-3} = \frac{1}{v^3}
\]
Combine the terms into a single fraction
Now, we multiply the simplified parts together:
\[
\frac{1}{v^3} \cdot x^9 = \frac{x^9}{v^3}
\]
This expression is fully simplified and contains only positive exponents.
