Question

Monomial standard form Multiply. Your answer should be a monomial in standard form. {(-4r^3)(-5r^3)}

a) (-20r^6)
b) (20r^6)
c) (-9r^6)
d) (9r^6)

Answer 1

To multiply (-4r^3)(-5r^3), multiply the coefficients (-4)(-5) and add the exponents of the common variable 'r' raised to the power of 3. The answer is 20r^6.

Step-by-step explanation:

To multiply (-4r^3)(-5r^3), we need to multiply the coefficients (-4)(-5) and add the exponents of the common variable 'r' which is raised to the power of 3. Multiplying the coefficients gives us 20, and adding the exponents gives us r^6. Therefore, the answer is 20r^6.
