Power Rule of Exponents Practice
Math 8 Q1 (Pre-Algebra) / Exponent Rules
Use the Power Rule of Exponents to simplify the expression (73^4)5.(1 point)
To simplify the expression using the Power Rule of Exponents, we need to multiply the exponents.
(73^4)5
= 73^(4*5)
= 73^20
To simplify the expression (73^4)^5 using the Power Rule of Exponents, we need to multiply the exponents.
First, let's simplify the base: 73^4
To do this, we need to multiply 73 by itself four times: 73 * 73 * 73 * 73.
Calculating this, we get 2,087,328.
Now, let's simplify the expression: (2,087,328)^5
To do this, we need to multiply 2,087,328 by itself five times: 2,087,328 * 2,087,328 * 2,087,328 * 2,087,328 * 2,087,328.
Calculating this, we get an extremely large number: 618780487709353676384.
Therefore, the simplified expression is (73^4)^5 = 618780487709353676384.
