Question
$\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^{-2}\times\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^{-5}=\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^{10}$

Answer

False.Solution:
$LHS \Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^{-2}\times\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^{-5}$
 Using law of exponents, $a^m \times a^n=(a)^{m+n}[\because$ a is non-zero integer$]$
$\therefore$ $\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^{-2}\times\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^{-5}=​​\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^{-2-5}$
$=\Big(\frac{2}{3}\Big)^{-7}$
$LHS ≠ RHS$
