So the rule with multiplying exponents of the same base is to add the exponents together. Applying this rule here would look like this:

In short, your simplified expression is going to be -16x^7y^6.
Answer:
23.6 (approximate value)
Step-by-step explanation:
- a*a+b*b=c*c Pythagorean thereom
- (21.5)^2 + b*b = (31.9)^2
- b*b= 1017.61 - 462.25
- √b*b= √555.36
- b=23.6(approximate value)
Answer:
w=6
Step-by-step explanation:
P=2(L)+2(w)
48= 2(18)+2w
48=36+2w
12=2w
w=6
checking;
48= 2(18)+2(6)
48= 36+12
48= 48
