When writing equivalent expressions, there are often several possible orders in which to simplify them. However, they will all take you to the same result as long as you do not make a mistake when using the properties. In this example, you will distribute the outer exponent first using the Power of a Product Property.

Answer:
50:39
Step-by-step explanation:
The first number in the context always goes first!
I believe this just uses the Pythagorean Theorem. A^2+B^2=C^2. So:
15^2+B^2=25^2. Simplified this is,
225+B^2=625
625-225=400
B^2=400
√ B=<span>√ 400
</span>B=20
