use this :
\(\huge (ab)^n=a^nb^n \)
hartnn (hartnn):
and you know 4^3= ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay so do i times 4 and 3 ? @hartnn im not good in math really would like your help
hartnn (hartnn):
nopes, in a^b you multiply a 'b' times,
so in 4^3
you multiply 4 3 times, what u get ?

hartnn (hartnn):
yup, 64 is correct :)
so what will be
(4x)^3 ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay so it will be 64x^3
hartnn (hartnn):
that is correct!
good :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay here's another let me do it first you tell me if its wrong . (3x)2

9x(5x^2)
hartnn (hartnn):
ok, so group like terms, like 9*5 and x*x^2
whats x*x^2 = ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
its 45^2
hartnn (hartnn):
9*5 = 45, this is correct.
but what is x*x^2= ?
\(\huge x^n.x^m=x^{m+n}\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
9*2 is what your asking ?

hartnn (hartnn):
nopes,
\(\large 9x(5x^2) = (9*5) (x*x^2)=45x^{1+2}=?\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh so 45^3
hartnn (hartnn):
45x^3
did u get how ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes x+x will get you two . but this question here |dw:1349101325193:dw|
