Question

Apply the power of product rule to the expression below. Once you have applied the power of product rule identify the exponents. (b^3*c^4)^{2}The exponent on b is AnswerThe exponent on c is Answer

Answer 1

We have the expression,

`(b^3* c^4)^2`

Applying the product rule means,

`(a^x* b^y)^z=a^(xz)* b^(yz)`

So, we have,

`(b^3* c^4)^2=b^(3*2)* c^(4*2)=b^6* c^8`

Thus,

The exponent on b is 6

The exponent on c is 8
