When you expand the binomial, you isolate each of the parts.
So, (x-y)^4 would turn into...
x^4 - y^4
The powers stay the same because (outside the parenthesis) you multiply them with whatever is inside the parenthesis. In this case, would be 1. All variables and numbers without a listed power have a power of one. Multiply 4*1 to get 4.
81 to the 4th root is 3 and 3 cubed is 27.

Both the top and bottom are divisible by three, and 13/9ths cannot be simplified anymore
(a.)
Mean= sum / n
Mean= (123+116+122+110+175+126+125+111+118+117) / 10
Mean=1243 / 10
Mean= 124.3
Median:
Rearranged the data in order first
110,111,116,117,118,122,123,125,126,175
118 and 122 are at the middle
Median=1/2(n1 + n2)
Median=1/2(118+122)
Median=240/2
Median= 120
(b) 175 is the larger than the others value and larger than the mean, so it is the substantial difference between the mean and the highest value (175).
