Exercise #6

Simplify the following equation:

64×23×62×25= 6^4\times2^3\times6^2\times2^5=

Step-by-Step Solution

To simplify the equation 64×23×62×25 6^4 \times 2^3 \times 6^2 \times 2^5 , we will make use of the rules of exponents, specifically the product of powers rule, which states that when multiplying two powers that have the same base, you can add their exponents.

Step 1: Identify and group the terms with the same base.
In the expression 64×23×62×25 6^4 \times 2^3 \times 6^2 \times 2^5 , group the powers of 6 together and the powers of 2 together:

  • Powers of 6: 64×62 6^4 \times 6^2

  • Powers of 2: 23×25 2^3 \times 2^5

Step 2: Apply the product of powers rule.
According to the product of powers rule, for any real number a a , and integers m m and n n , the expression am×an=am+n a^m \times a^n = a^{m+n} .

Apply this rule to the powers of 6:
64×62=64+2=66 6^4 \times 6^2 = 6^{4+2} = 6^6 .

Apply this rule to the powers of 2:
23×25=23+5=28 2^3 \times 2^5 = 2^{3+5} = 2^8 .

Step 3: Write down the final expression.
Combining our results gives the simplified expression: 66×28 6^6 \times 2^8 .

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 66×28 6^6 \times 2^8 .

Answer

66×28 6^6\times2^8

  • Step 1: Simplify the expression by grouping the like bases. The original expression is 73×52×74×53 7^3 \times 5^2 \times 7^4 \times 5^3 .

  • Step 2: Combine the exponents for each base. For base 7: 73×74=73+4=77 7^3 \times 7^4 = 7^{3+4} = 7^7 . For base 5: 52×53=52+3=55 5^2 \times 5^3 = 5^{2+3} = 5^5 .

  • Step 3: Write the simplified expression. After combining the exponents, the expression becomes 77×55 7^7 \times 5^5 .

Thus, the solution to the problem is 77×55 7^7 \times 5^5 .

Answer

Exercise #8

Reduce the following equation:

(32)4×(53)5= \left(3^2\right)^4\times\left(5^3\right)^5=

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll employ the power of a power rule in exponents, which states that (am)n=am×n(a^m)^n = a^{m \times n}.

Let's apply this rule to each part of the expression:

  • Step 1: Simplify (32)4(3^2)^4
    According to the power of a power rule, this becomes 32×4=383^{2 \times 4} = 3^8.

  • Step 2: Simplify (53)5(5^3)^5
    Similarly, apply the rule here to get 53×5=5155^{3 \times 5} = 5^{15}.

After simplifying both parts, we multiply the results:

38×5153^8 \times 5^{15}

Thus, the reduced expression is 38×515\boxed{3^8 \times 5^{15}}.

Answer

38×515 3^8\times5^{15}

We apply the rule to our problem:

(x43)3=x34333 (x\cdot4\cdot3)^3= x^3\cdot4^3\cdot3^3

When we apply the power to the product of the terms within parentheses, we apply the power to each term of the product separately and keep the product,

Exercise #14

406736490=? \frac{4^0\cdot6^7}{36^4\cdot9^0}=\text{?}

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

First we'll use the fact that raising any number to the power of 0 gives the result 1, mathematically:

X0=1 X^0=1

We'll apply this to both the numerator and denominator of the fraction in the problem:

406736490=1673641=67364 \frac{4^0\cdot6^7}{36^4\cdot9^0}=\frac{1\cdot6^7}{36^4\cdot1}=\frac{6^7}{36^4}

Next we'll note that -36 is a power of the number 6:

36=62 36=6^2

And we'll use this fact in the denominator to get expressions with identical bases in both the numerator and denominator:

67364=67(62)4 \frac{6^7}{36^4}=\frac{6^7}{(6^2)^4}

Now we'll recall the power rule for power of a power to simplify the expression in the denominator:

(am)n=amn (a^m)^n=a^{m\cdot n}

And we'll also recall the power rule for division between terms with identical bases:

aman=amn \frac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n}

We'll apply these two rules to the expression we got above:

67(62)4=67624=6768=678=61 \frac{6^7}{(6^2)^4}=\frac{6^7}{6^{2\cdot4}}=\frac{6^7}{6^8}=6^{7-8}=6^{-1}

Where in the first stage we applied the first rule we mentioned earlier - the power of a power rule and simplified the expression in the exponent of the denominator term, then in the next stage we applied the second power rule mentioned before - the division rule for terms with identical bases, and again simplified the expression in the resulting exponent,

Finally we'll use the power rule for negative exponents:

an=1an a^{-n}=\frac{1}{a^n}

And we'll apply it to the expression we got:

61=16 6^{-1}=\frac{1}{6}

Let's summarize everything we did, we got that:

406736490=16 \frac{4^0\cdot6^7}{36^4\cdot9^0}=\frac{1}{6}

Therefore the correct answer is A.

Answer

16 \frac{1}{6}

Exercise #15

(26)3= (\frac{2}{6})^3=

Video Solution

(ab)n=anbn (\frac{a}{b})^n=\frac{a^n}{b^n}

(26)3=(22×3)3 (\frac{2}{6})^3=(\frac{2}{2\times3})^3

We simplify:

(13)3=1333 (\frac{1}{3})^3=\frac{1^3}{3^3}

1×1×13×3×3=127 \frac{1\times1\times1}{3\times3\times3}=\frac{1}{27}

Answer

127 \frac{1}{27}

Exercise #16

(23)4=? (\frac{2}{3})^{-4}=\text{?}

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

We use the formula:

(ab)n=(ba)n (\frac{a}{b})^{-n}=(\frac{b}{a})^n

Therefore, we obtain:

(32)4 (\frac{3}{2})^4

We use the formula:

(ba)n=bnan (\frac{b}{a})^n=\frac{b^n}{a^n}

Therefore, we obtain:

3424=3×3×3×32×2×2×2=8116 \frac{3^4}{2^4}=\frac{3\times3\times3\times3}{2\times2\times2\times2}=\frac{81}{16}

Answer

8116 \frac{81}{16}

Exercise #17

7483(17)4=? 7^4\cdot8^3\cdot(\frac{1}{7})^4=\text{?}

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

We use the formula:

(ab)n=anbn (\frac{a}{b})^n=\frac{a^n}{b^n}

We decompose the fraction inside of the parentheses:

(17)4=1474 (\frac{1}{7})^4=\frac{1^4}{7^4}

We obtain:

74×83×1474 7^4\times8^3\times\frac{1^4}{7^4}

We simplify the powers: 74 7^4

We obtain:

83×14 8^3\times1^4

Remember that the number 1 in any power is equal to 1, thus we obtain:

83×1=83 8^3\times1=8^3

Answer

83 8^3

Exercise #18

(3)584(3)3(3)2(3)5=? \frac{(-3)^5\cdot8^4}{(-3)^3(-3)^2(-3)^{-5}}=\text{?}

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

First, let's recall the law of exponents for multiplication between terms with identical bases:

aman=am+n a^m\cdot a^n=a^{m+n}

and we'll use it to handle the fraction's denominator in the problem:

(3)584(3)3(3)2(3)5=(3)584(3)3+2+(5)=(3)584(3)0 \frac{(-3)^5\cdot8^4}{(-3)^3(-3)^2(-3)^{-5}}=\frac{(-3)^5\cdot8^4}{(-3)^{3+2+(-5)}}=\frac{(-3)^5\cdot8^4}{(-3)^0}

where in the first stage we'll apply the above law to the denominator and then simplify the expression with the exponent in the denominator,

Now let's remember that raising any number to the power of 0 gives the result 1, or mathematically:

X0=1 X^0=1

therefore the denominator we got in the last stage is 1,

meaning we got that:

(3)584(3)3(3)2(3)5=(3)584(3)0=(3)5841=(3)584 \frac{(-3)^5\cdot8^4}{(-3)^3(-3)^2(-3)^{-5}}=\frac{(-3)^5\cdot8^4}{(-3)^0}=\frac{(-3)^5\cdot8^4}{1}=(-3)^5\cdot8^4

Now let's recall the law of exponents for an exponent of a product in parentheses:

(xy)n=xnyn (x\cdot y)^n=x^n\cdot y^n

and we'll apply this law to the first term in the product we got:

(3)584=(13)584=(1)53584=13584=3584 (-3)^5\cdot8^4=(-1\cdot3)^5\cdot8^4 =(-1)^5\cdot3^5\cdot8^4=-1\cdot 3^5\cdot 8^4=-3^5\cdot8^4

Note that the exponent applies separately to both the number 3 and its sign, which is the minus sign that is actually multiplication by 1 -1

Let's summarize everything we did, we got that:

(3)584(3)3(3)2(3)5=(3)584=3584 \frac{(-3)^5\cdot8^4}{(-3)^3(-3)^2(-3)^{-5}}=(-3)^5\cdot8^4 = -3^5\cdot8^4

Therefore the correct answer is answer C.

Answer

3584 -3^5\cdot8^4
