Question

simplify the expression
(2x^5*x)^-2

Answer 1

the negative power of the exponent makes it 1 <over>. So, you have
\[1/(2x ^{5x})^{2}\] Then you need to expand the bottom.

Answer 2

ok

Answer 3

make sense? Is that the correct display for the 2x^5*x? I wrote it as 2x^(5*x). if it is actually \[2x ^{5}*x\] then you will need to change the denominator.

Answer 4

Answer 5
