Answer:
B) -125a^11
Step-by-step explanation:
(-5a^2)^3·a^5 = (-5)^3·a^6·a^5
= (-5)^3·a^(2·3)·a^5
= (-5)^3·a^6·a^5
= -125·a^(6+5)
= -125·a^11 . . . . matches choice B
_____
The applicable rules of exponents are ...
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
(a^b)^c = a^(bc)
Answer:
x is the reciprocal of the difference of a and b.
Step-by-step explanation:
ax=bx+1
Subtract by bx on both sides
ax-bx=1
x(a-b)=1
x= 1/(a-b)
