Answer:
[tex]3^{12}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]([/tex][tex]3^{5}[/tex][tex])^{2}[/tex]
You multiply the exponents to get:
[tex]3^{10}[/tex]
Then you divide it by [tex]3^{-2}[/tex]
When dividing exponents, you subtract.
10 - - 2 = 12 so the exponent is 12.
That leaves us with:
[tex]3^{12}[/tex]
