Simplify. (Assume all variables are nonzero.)
-$$\frac { ( a - 3 b ) ^ { 15 } } { ( a - 3 b ) ^ { 5 } }$$
A) $( a - 3 b ) ^ { 75 }$
B) $( a - 3 b ) ^{10}$
C) $( a - 3 b ) ^ { 3 }$
D) $( a - 3 b ) ^ { 20 }$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When dividing powers with the same base, subtract the exponents: $15 - 5 = 10$, resulting in $(a - 3b)^{10}$.
