Math Problem Statement

Simplify: left parenthesis, 2, r, cubed, right parenthesis, cubed (2r 3 ) 3

Solution

To simplify (2r3)3(2r^3)^3, follow these steps:

  1. Apply the power of a power rule, which states (am)n=amn(a^m)^n = a^{m \cdot n}.

    So, we can rewrite this as: 23(r3)32^3 \cdot (r^3)^3

  2. Simplify each part:

    • 23=82^3 = 8
    • (r3)3=r33=r9(r^3)^3 = r^{3 \cdot 3} = r^9
  3. Combine the results: 8r98r^9

Final Answer:

(2r3)3=8r9(2r^3)^3 = 8r^9
