Math Problem Statement
Solution
The image contains a set of mathematical expressions involving powers, multiplication, and division, asking to simplify each expression using the properties of exponents.
Let's go through a couple of examples from the provided image.
a.
Simplification:
- Combine the coefficients: .
- For the variables, use the property : Thus, the simplified expression is:
b.
Simplification:
- Combine the constants: .
- Apply the exponent rule for multiplication to the -terms and -terms: remains as it is. Thus, the simplified expression is:
