Question

What is the simplified form of the following expression?(x10)(x2) x8 x12 x20 x100

Answer 1

I think the answer would be x^12

Answer 2

I believe the answer would be x20. Between the two parentheses there's a multiplication symbol. So you would just pretend that the parentheses aren't there cause the variable(s) (x) is/are like terms. So you would just multiply 10 times 2 and put out the x back in front of it
