00:07 Let's begin!
00:10 We'll use the formula for powers with products.
00:13 When a product is raised to a power, say N,
00:17 each factor is also raised to that same power, N.
00:22 We're using this idea in our exercise.
00:25 Let's expand the brackets and apply the power to each factor.
00:29 And that's how we solve the question!

1

Understand the problem

Solve the following exercise:

(4×9×11)a (4\times9\times11)^a

2

Step-by-step solution

We use the power law for a multiplication between parentheses:

(zt)n=zntn (z\cdot t)^n=z^n\cdot t^n

That is, a power applied to a multiplication between parentheses is applied to each term when the parentheses are opened,

We apply it in the problem:

(4911)a=4a9a11a (4\cdot9\cdot11)^a=4^a\cdot9^a\cdot11^a

Therefore, the correct answer is option b.

Note:

From the power property formula mentioned, we can understand that it works not only with two terms of the multiplication between parentheses, but also valid with a multiplication between multiple terms in parentheses. As we can see in this problem.

Final Answer

4a×9a×11a 4^a\times9^a\times11^a
