OpenStudy (mrs.irwin):

what is your question? maybe I can help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do I simplify 36x to the 3rd power?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

36x^3 Is that how you write it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah

OpenStudy (mrs.irwin):

yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay then let me see. . . .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh ok

OpenStudy (mrs.irwin):

do you understand why

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry man I don't know.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why what?

OpenStudy (mrs.irwin):

why it is written like that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No I don't know

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My teacher just Gave it to me like that

OpenStudy (mrs.irwin):

the 3 means you would multiply the same number three times, so if it is raise to the 3rd power that means you would multiply 36x*36x*36x.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh OK thank you

OpenStudy (mrs.irwin):

No problem. I hope that I explained it well enough for you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do I do 125 y^2 z^4

OpenStudy (mrs.irwin):

is there any numbers for y and z?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No mam just the problem I gave you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My teacher just gave it to me like that

OpenStudy (mrs.irwin):

do you know if it is factoring?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My teacher just gave it to me like that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It says to simplify an assume all variables are positive

OpenStudy (mrs.irwin):

okay give me a minute to figure it out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh ok

OpenStudy (mrs.irwin):

i cannot figure it out. Sorry its been a long time since i have done this math

OpenStudy (anonymous):
