The product rule states that when multiplying 2 powers that have the same base, you can add the exponents.

(-7)(4)(x^4+2)(p^5)(y^4)

mary.rojas · Answer

anonymous · Answer

Rearranged the question to group common bases

anonymous · Answer

it should end up looking like -28x^6p^5y^4

mary.rojas · Answer

What are commmon bases?? Am so sorry but for some reason this is not clicking

anonymous · Answer

(-7x^4p^5)(4y^4x^2) okay so from here you take each term out and put them into groups..
i.e 
(-7)(4)(x^4+2)(p^5)(y^4)

mary.rojas · Answer

Yea...so why did you group x^4 and 2 together ???

anonymous · Answer

because there was (x^4) and (x^2)
