Question

Part 1: Explain, using complete sentences, how to simplify the expression below.
Part 2: What is the simplified expression?

(3x^3y^4)2

Answer 1

hope you know that

(2a^2)^2 = 2^2 *a^(2*2) = 4*a^4

1. when there is a product of ab on exponent x like (ab)^x so this mean that there is a on exponent x time b on exponent x

when there is a on exponent x and all on exponent y like (a^x)^y so this mean that we need multiplie these exponents so we get a on exponent x time y so a^(x*y)

hope that is clearly ,understandably

Answer 2

(3x^3y^4)^2 = 3^2 *x^3*2 *y^4*2 = 9*x^6*y^8

so the answer will be 9x^6y^8

Answer 3

hope that will help you
