What is [tex]2x^2y^4[/tex] times [tex]4x^2y^4[/tex] times [tex]\frac{3x}{3x^{-3}y^2}[/tex]?
Answer (2)
2 x 2 y 4 ∗ 4 x 2 y 4 ∗ 3 x − 3 3 x y 2 = 8 x 4 y 8 ∗ 1 3 x y 2 ∗ 1 3 x 3 = = 8 x 4 y 8 ∗ 9 x 4 y 2 = = 72 x 8 y 10
The expression 2 x 2 y 4 × 4 x 2 y 4 × 3 x − 3 y 2 3 x simplifies to 8 x 8 y 6 . First, we multiply the numerical coefficients and combine like bases for both x and y. Finally, we arrive at the boxed result of 8 x 8 y 6 .
