(4^p*4^1)^3 = 4^15
add the exponents
(4^(p+1))^3 = 4^15
power to the power means multiply
(4^3(p+1)) = 4^15
the bases are the same so the powers have to be the same
3(p+1)) = 15
divide by 3
p+1 =5
subtract 1
p=4
Eric is incorrect. p=4

since 3c is not equal to 2c, this means that the expressions are not equal
a) P(3) =
(or 0.11 or 11%)
b) Number of sixes = P(6) x 500
=
x 500
= 12 x 5
= 60
The answer is 2764 if I’m not mistaken
