simplify (2ab³)4

Answer 1

( 2a b^3 ) ^4 = 16 a^4 b ^12

Answer 2

(2ab^3)4 = 4x2ab^3 = 8ab^3 If the question is (2ab^3)^4 = 2^4 x a^4 x b^(3+4) = 16a^4b^7 :)

Answer 3

Nicole,

          In this case it is not clear if the "4" is an exponent or a factor.I'll do it both ways.

 

1. exponent (2ab³)⁴ = 16a⁴b¹² 

 

2. factor (2ab³)4 = 8ab³ 

 

Hope this helps

 

Jim
