Answer 1

B

Explanation:

If the function given is SQUARED, the expression would be:

`(5(2^x))^2`

We can use the rule below to further simplify:

`(ab)^c=a^c*b^c`

We have:

`(5(2^x))^2\\=(5)^2 * (2^x)^2`

We can use another exponential rule to simplify this. Shown below:

`(a^b)^c=a^(b*c)`

Thus, we have:

`(5)^2 * (2^x)^2\\=25*2^(2x)\\=25(2^(2x))`

Correct answer is B
