can someone please tell me the STEPS (Not just the answer, cause this doesn't make any sense to me) to simplifying this equation:
(6x^-2)^2(0.5x)^4
thank you :)
6^2 = 36
x^-2 ^2 = x^-4
.5^4 = 1/2^4 = 1/16
x^4 = x^4
36/16 = ??????
(6x^-2)^2(0.5x)^4
thank you :)
x^-2 ^2 = x^-4
.5^4 = 1/2^4 = 1/16
x^4 = x^4
36/16 = ??????
