Question

How do you Simplify :(2p^-3)^5

Answer 1

Answer:

The final simplification is (32p^-15).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

(2p^-3)^5 we have to simplify.

Property to be used:(Power rule)

Power rule states that: $(a^x)^y=a^x^y$ ...the exponents were multiplied.

Using power rule.

We have,

⇒$(2p^-3)^5$          

⇒$(2^5)(p^-3^*5)$     ...taking exponents individually.

⇒$32(p^-^1^5)$         ...$2^5=2*2*2*2*2=32$

⇒$32p^-^1^5$

So our final values are 32p^-15
