Given the numerical equation:

(-9n^9)(n^3)

Multiply.

Solution:

Before multiplying the given values, we must simply understand first the concept of multiplying, dividing, or introducing signs. If similar signs are introduced, multiplied or divided to one another, the answer will become positive, hence if the signs are opposite to one another, then the answer will become negative. In our case we have a negative value and a positive value therefore the resulting value will be negative. 

For the exponents, according to the laws of exponents, we simply need to add the exponents of values that are multiplied.

= (-9n^9)(n^3)

= - 9n^(9 + 3)

= - 9n^12

Final answer:

= - 9n^12
