(4^3)^5

OpenStudy (decarr432):

Find the equivalent exponential expression

Atsie (atsie):

4 to the 3rd power x 5.

OpenStudy (decarr432):

that didn't follow over lol sorry

Atsie (atsie):

Oh, do you have options?

OpenStudy (decarr432):

No

Atsie (atsie):

Alright, well what is 4 to the third power?

OpenStudy (decarr432):

64

Atsie (atsie):

Correct. 64 times 5

OpenStudy (decarr432):

wouldnt it be to the fifth?

Atsie (atsie):

As in 64 to the fifth power?

OpenStudy (decarr432):

yeah because the problem is (4^3)^5

OpenStudy (decarr432):

so wouldnt it be (64)^5

Atsie (atsie):

If you did that, it'd be a whole bunch of numbers like.... 1073741824

OpenStudy (decarr432):

okay I think I get it

Atsie (atsie):

if you did 64 x 5, it'd be 320 and then you'd simplify that.

OpenStudy (decarr432):

How?

imqwerty (imqwerty):

okay this question is solved just bu using an identity the identity is- \(\Large (x^a)^b= x^{a \times b}\) try it now :)

imqwerty (imqwerty):

*by

OpenStudy (decarr432):

So 4^3*^5 just multiply exponents?

OpenStudy (decarr432):

and x stays the same

OpenStudy (decarr432):

and x stays the same

imqwerty (imqwerty):

yeah the base will remain the same so \(\Large (4)^{3 \times 5}\)

OpenStudy (decarr432):

So it would be (4^15)

imqwerty (imqwerty):

yes :) \(\Huge\color{green}{✓}\)

OpenStudy (decarr432):

Thanks

imqwerty (imqwerty):

no problem (B
