Math Problem Statement

The image contains three algebraic expressions to simplify: 8a^4b^3 × 6a^2b^4, a^3x × a^4x, and x^5y^9 ÷ x^3y^4.

Solution

Let's solve the expressions given in the image:

a. 8a4b3×6a2b48a^4b^3 \times 6a^2b^4

  • First, multiply the coefficients: 8×6=488 \times 6 = 48.
  • For the variables, apply the product rule of exponents: a4×a2=a4+2=a6a^4 \times a^2 = a^{4+2} = a^6 and b3×b4=b3+4=b7b^3 \times b^4 = b^{3+4} = b^7.

So, the solution is: 48a6b748a^6b^7


d. a3x×a4xa^{3x} \times a^{4x}

  • Apply the product rule of exponents again: a3x×a4x=a(3x+4x)=a7xa^{3x} \times a^{4x} = a^{(3x + 4x)} = a^{7x}.

So, the solution is: a7xa^{7x}


g. x5y9x3y4\frac{x^5y^9}{x^3y^4}

  • Use the quotient rule of exponents: x5x3=x53=x2\frac{x^5}{x^3} = x^{5-3} = x^2 and y9y4=y94=y5\frac{y^9}{y^4} = y^{9-4} = y^5.

So, the solution is: x2y5x^2y^5

Tip: Always remember that when multiplying terms with the same base, you add the exponents, and when dividing, you subtract the exponents!
