Question

Fully simplify. x3y4(7xy5)

Answer 1

Please, use " ^ " to denote exponentiation. What I think you meant to share here is:

x^3*y^4(7x*y^5)

Here 7 is the only coefficient. Write that down: 7.

Next, let's focus on the x terms: x^3*x = x^4, so we now have 7x^4.

Finally, let's focus on the y terms: y^4*y^5 = y^(4+5) = y^9, so our final answer is

7x^4*y^9.
