Answer 1

Answer:

aabbcc

abcabc

Step-by-step explanation:

(abc) ^2

(abc) * (abc)

abc abc

a* a* b* b* c* c

The third terms tries to trick you.  It is equal, but it has exponents

The fourth terms does not have any "c" terms

Answer 2

Answer:

A. $abcabc$

B. $aabbcc$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an expression $(abc)^2$. We are asked to choose the correct options that our equivalent to our given expression without exponents.

Let us check our given choices one by one.

A. $abcabc$

We know $(mn)^2=mn\cdot mn$, therefore, option A is the correct choice.

B. $aabbcc$

We know $x^2=x\cdot x$. So, we can rewrite our given expression as:

$(abc)^2\rightarrow a^2b^2c^2=a\cdot a\cdot b\cdot b\cdot c\cdot c=aabbcc$

Therefore, option B is the correct choice.

C. $a^2b^2c^2$

Since option C contains exponents, therefore, option C is not correct choice.

D. $aabb$

Since term $cc$ is missing from option D, therefore, it is not a correct choice.
