Question

Simplify the expression (C^4/3 x b^1/2)^-3

Answer 1

Answer:

3 b 11 6

Step-by-step explanation:

3 b 1 2 ⋅ b 4 3

Move  

b 4 3 . 3 ( b 4 3 b 1 2 )

Use the power rule  

a m a n = a m + n

to combine exponents.

3 b 4 3 + 1 2

To write  

4 3

as a fraction with a common denominator, multiply by  

2 2 . 3 b 4 3 ⋅ 2 2 + 12

To write  1 2

as a fraction with a common denominator, multiply by  

3 3 . 3 b4 3 ⋅ 2 2 + 1 2 ⋅ 3 3

Write each expression with a common denominator of  

6

, by multiplying each by an appropriate factor of  

1 .
