a/ Ta có :
\(12^8=\left(12^2\right)^4=144^4\)
\(8^{12}=\left(8^3\right)^4=512^4\)
Vì \(144^4< 512^4\Leftrightarrow12^8< 8^{12}\)
b/ Ta có :
\(\left(-5\right)^{39}=\left[\left(-5\right)^3\right]^{13}=\left(-125\right)^{13}\)
\(\left(-2\right)^{91}=\left[\left(-2\right)^7\right]^{13}=\left(-128\right)^{13}\)
Vì \(\left(-125\right)^{13}< \left(-128\right)^{13}\Leftrightarrow\left(-5\right)^{39}< \left(-2\right)^{91}\)
a) 12^8 = (12^2)^4 =144^4
8^12 = (8^3)^4= 512^4
Vì 144 < 512 nên 144^4<512^4
Vậy 12^8 < 8^12
