Question

100 POINTS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

remember
x^-m=1/x^m
1/12=12^-1
also
(x^m)^n=x^(mn)
also (x^m)(x^n)=x^(m+n)


`( (1)/(12) )^(-2b)(12)^(-2b+2)=12`

`( 12^(-1))^(-2b)(12)^(-2b+2)=12`

`( 12^(2b))(12)^(-2b+2)=12`

`12^(2b-2b+2)=12`
12²=12
false
no solution

Answer 2

(1/12)^(-2b) * 12^(-2b+2) = 12

(12^-1)^(-2b) (12)^(-2b+2) = 12

(12^2b)(12)^(-2b+2) = 12

12^(2b-2b+2) = 12

12^2 = 12

144 does not equal 12

No solution.

Best of Luck!
