Answer

$\frac{6y^{12}}{z^{2}}$

Work Step by Step

Use the distributive property and the exponent product rule ($x^{y}$ $\times$ $x^{z}$ = $x^{y+z}$). Then, use the negative exponent rule. 3 $\times$ 2 = 6 $y^{9}$$\times$$y^{3}$ = $y^{12}$ $z^{10}$ $\times$ $z^{-12}$ =$z^{-2}$ $\frac{6y^{12}}{z^{2}}$
