Question

Directions:Use the product rule to simplify the following monomials.

Answer 1

16) Answer= $11x^6y^5$

$\left(2x^5y^2\right)\left(4xy^3\right)+\left(x^4y^4\right)\left(3x^2y\right)$

$=8x^6y^5+3x^6y^5$

$=11x^6y^5$

17) Answer=  $18a^4b^6$

$\left(4a^3b^4\right)\left(5ab^2\right)+\left(a^2b^5\right)\left(-2a^2b\right)$

$=4a^3b^4\cdot \:5ab^2-a^2b^5\cdot \:2a^2b$

$=20a^4b^6-2a^4b^6$

$=18a^4b^6$
