In the second step, I rewrote 8 as 2*4. Then after that I regrouped terms so that the (3*2) can pair up together. This of course turns into 6. After that point, we have 6, 4 and x multiplied together as the base.
The last step uses the rule that
, in other words, we apply the exponent d to each term inside the parenthesis. Each term inside gets its own exponent.
An example: 
Answer:
Answer is 40

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
KL is tangent to the circle, so angle JKL = 90°.
Pythagorean Theorem:
r² + 24² = (r+16)²
r² + 576 = r² + 32r + 256
32r = 320
r = 10 units
Answer:
WX = WY
9x - 11 = 7x - 3..........Then subtract 7x to the other side such that
2x - 11 = -3..........Then add 11 to both sides such that
2x = 8...........Then divide 2 such that
x = 4
Now we can find each side such that
WX = 9(4)-11 = 25
WY = 7(4)-3 = 25
XY = 4(4)+1 = 17
