Answer: price of total notebooks = p(a+b+c) or pa+pb+pc= price of total notebooks
Step-by-step explanation:
you have to add all the number of notebooks or a b and c and then multiply it by the price of each notebook. there are multiple ways to do this but those are the ways I could think of.
if a=2, b=3 and c=6 then you have to add 2+3+6 to equal 11 then multiply 11 by the price of each notebook, say p=$4.50 your equation would be 4.50*11 which is $49.50, and that would be the total of all the notebooks. these numbers metaphorical of course, but hope that puts it into perspective.
When you have something like this, to simplify the exponent you multiply them together, so the exponent is 1/3 x 1/5. 1/3 x 1/5 is 1/15, so the simplified expression is: Hope this helps!
