Question

Heyy can someone help me out? please add an explanation on how you got the answer thank you!!!

Answer 1

2x^11

Explanation:

distributing x^8(2x^3) makes 2 * x^3 * x^8. To multiply exponents, just add the powers together to make 11. This makes 2x^11.

Answer 2

`8x^1^1`

Explanation:

Hi there!

`x^8*(2x)^3`

Distribute the exponent into the parentheses:

`= x^8*2^3x^3\\= x^8*8x^3\\= 8*x^3*x^8`

When two powers have the same base, add the exponents:

`= 8*x^3^+^8\\= 8*x^1^1\\= 8x^1^1`

I hope this helps!
