Okay, here we have this:
Considering the provided expression, we are going to analize which exponential expression is equivalent, so we obtain the following:
As the property of the exponent of a multiplication says that it is equal to the product of each number raised to that power. We have this:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \mleft(22\cdot\mleft(-7\mright)\mright)^{40} \\ =(22)^{40}\cdot(-7)^{40} \end{gathered}[/tex]
Finally we obtain that the correct answer is the option D.
