this may be a little confusing when the numbers are in parentheses its like 5 to the power of 2 or like 5^2 simplify the expression: 4a(7thPower) -3a(13thPower) A. 7a(20th power) B 7a(91power) C 12a(6th power) D 12a(20th power)

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

None of the above.

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

4a(7thPower) * 3a(13thPower) = 12a(20th power)

i dont understand why you said none of the above XD wouldnt it be D? @skullpatrol

OpenStudy (triciaal):

4a^7-3a^13 a^7(4-3a^6) would be d only if you multiply

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its hard to read this paper i think it ment -3 not minus 3 @skullpatrol @triciaal

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

simplify the expression: 4a(7thPower) - 3a(13thPower)

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

simplify the expression: 4a(7thPower) * 3a(13thPower)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (skullpatrol):

Yep
