Answer:

x^6x^{-12} and (x^{-3})^2

Explanation:

Given

(x^3x^{-6})^2

Required

Possible Next Step

Open Bracket;

From law of indices; (a^m)^n = a^{mn}

This implies that

(x^3x^{-6})^2 = (x^{3*2}x^{-6*2})

(x^3x^{-6})^2 = x^{6}x^{-12}

Hence, a possible next step is x^6x^{-12}

Another possible step is as follows

(x^3x^{-6})^2

From law of indices; a^m*a^n = a^{m+n}

This implies that

(x^3x^{-6})^2 = (x^{3+(-6)})^2

(x^3x^{-6})^2 = (x^{3-6})^2

(x^3x^{-6})^2 = (x^{-3})^2

Hence, a possible next step is (x^{-3})^2

LC)A polygon is shown:
Vladimir [108]

The area of polygon MNOPQR is equal to the area of a rectangle that is 15 square units + area of a rectangle that is 2 square units.

<h3>How to calculate the area of this polygon?</h3>

First of all, we would determine the area of rectangle MNSR with a side length of 3 units as follows:

Area = L × W

Area = 3 × 5

Area = 15 square units.

Next, we would determine the area of rectangle MNSR with its dimensions as follows:

  • Length = 7 - 5 = 2 units.
  • Width = 3 - 2 = 1 unit.

Thus, its area is given by:

Area = L × W

Area = 2 × 1

Area = 2 square units.

Therefore, the area of polygon MNOPQR is equal to the area of a rectangle that is 15 square units + area of a rectangle that is 2 square units.
