Explanation:

The given equation \((ab)^x = a^x b^x\) is the power of a product rule in exponents. For any real numbers \(a\), \(b\) (here restricted to positive numbers) and any real number \(x\), when you raise a product to a power, you can raise each factor to that power and then multiply the results. So this statement follows the exponent rule for the power of a product.

Answer:

True
