can anyone help me with simplifying an expression only using positive exponents? heres the problem: (-3y^2)^5 please help me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey: ok so when you put an exponent to an exponent you multiply them, knowing that what is the solution to your problem I will check for you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i would multiply 2 and 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes that is for the y for the 3, just put it to the 5th power, what do you get

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3^5 = 243 btw

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 2430 as my answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-243 * y^10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what about this problem (t^-7)^4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

again multiply -7 *4 -28 t^(-28)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you need all positive: 1/t^28

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks
