There would be 8 pickup trucks in the parking lot.
Answer:
5^8
Step-by-step explanation:
Diego added the exponents. This was an error. If he was simplifying
5^2 × 5^4, then he could add the exponents and get a correct answer. But his problem had a power raised to a power. In this case, you multiply the exponents to simplify.
(5^2)^4 means
5^2×5^2×5^2×5^2
which is
5×5×5×5×5×5×5×5
which is 5^8.
Answer : A {-8}
-4 = b/2
-4 *2 = b
-8 = b
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
a is defined first as 5. So a = 5.
b is defined after the circle b = -2
a^2 = 5^2 = 25
B^4 =(- 2)^4 = 16
Therefore sqrt(a^2 * b^4) = sqrt(25 * 16) = sqrt(400) = 20
The answer is C
