the answer is 12 because half of the sphere is 6 unit and the other half is 6 unit then you just add them and you get 12 units
Since there are only 4 terms in the sum, it's not too much work to expand it as

Alternatively, we can use the well-known formulas


These sums start at n = 0, so in our given sum we will keep track of the 0-th term separately:

as expected.
Answer:
y^7
Step-by-step explanation:
y^3 . y^5 . y^-2 . y
= y^3 . y^5 . y^-2 . y^1
= y^( 3 + 5 - 2 + 1 )
= y^( 3 + 5 + 1 - 2 )
= y^( 9 - 2 )
= y^7
