<u>Part a)</u>
Given the expression

Apply exponent rule: 
∵ 
Rewrite 81 as 3 · 27
Rewrite 54 as 2 · 27

Factor out the common term: 27m³n
Therefore,

<u>Part B)</u>
Given the expression

Apply exponent rule: 

Rewrite as

Factor out common term 5y²x²z

Therefore,

treat the tree trunk as a cylinder
v= pi x r^2 x h
using 3.14 for pi
3.14 x 3^2 x 10 = 282.6 cubic feet
282.6 * 45 = 12, 717 pounds
Answer:
B) 5
Step-by-step explanation:
We can simply plug 20 in for g in the expression:
g / 4 = 20 / 4 = 5
Thus, the answer is B.
Hope this helps!
