Question

Simplify this please

Answer 1

I think the answer is 6x^8y^5

Answer 2

`6x^(8)y^(5)`

Explanation:

Given
`(3x^(2)y^(4)) (2x^(6)y)`:

Using the exponent rule:
`a^(b) * a^(c) = a^(b + c)`

Add the exponents of x and y, and multiply the coefficients (3 and 2):

=
`3*2 x^((2+6)) y^((4+1))` (in the second term,
`(2x^(6)y)`, y has an exponent of 1).

The correct answer is:
`6x^(8)y^(5)`
