Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we need to simplify the given product of exponentials. Let's follow the steps:

  • Step 1: Identify that each factor 35x+123^{5x+\frac{1}{2}}, 75x+127^{5x+\frac{1}{2}}, and 55x+125^{5x+\frac{1}{2}} shares the same exponent 5x+125x + \frac{1}{2}.
  • Step 2: Apply the Power of a Product Rule, which allows us to combine the product of exponents with the same power. The rule states: am×bm×cm=(a×b×c)m a^{m} \times b^{m} \times c^{m} = (a \times b \times c)^{m} for a=3 a = 3 , b=7 b = 7 , and c=5 c = 5 .
  • Step 3: Combine the bases under a single exponent: 35x+12×75x+12×55x+12=(3×7×5)5x+12 3^{5x+\frac{1}{2}} \times 7^{5x+\frac{1}{2}} \times 5^{5x+\frac{1}{2}} = (3 \times 7 \times 5)^{5x+\frac{1}{2}}

Therefore, the reduced form of the given expression is (3×7×5)5x+12\left(3 \times 7 \times 5\right)^{5x+\frac{1}{2}} .

Answer

(3×7×5)5x+12 \left(3\times7\times5\right)^{5x+\frac{1}{2}}
