Choose the correct simplification of the expression ( 4x/y)^2.
erik [133]

\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \left(\frac{4x}{y}\right)^{2}   \end{gathered}$}

To raise 4x/y to a power, raise the numerator and denominator to the power, and then divide.

\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \frac{(4x)^{2} }{y^{2} }  \end{gathered}$}

Expand (4x)².

\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \frac{4^{2} x^{2} }{y^{2} }  \end{gathered}$}

Calculates 4 to the power of 2 and gets 16.

\boxed{\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \frac{16x^{2} }{y^{2} }  \end{gathered}$} }
