Question

Decide whether the expression has been simplified correctly.

[a/4]^5 = a/4 ^5
A.)no
B.) yes

Answer 1

No.

Explanation:

According to the law of exponent:-

`\displaystyle \large{( (a)/(b)) ^(m) = \frac{ {a}^(m) }{ {b}^(m) } }`

Therefore:-

`\displaystyle \large{( (a)/(4) )^(5) = \frac{ {a}^(5) }{ {4}^(5) } }`
