Math Problem Statement

Simplify: (ab 0 )(6a −4b 3 )(7a 2b)

Solution

Let's simplify the expression:

(ab0)(6a4b3)(7a2b)(ab^0)(6a^{-4}b^3)(7a^2b)

Step-by-step Breakdown:

  1. Simplify b0b^0:

    • Recall that any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1: b0=1b^0 = 1 So, ab0=aab^0 = a.

    The expression now simplifies to: a(6a4b3)(7a2b)a(6a^{-4}b^3)(7a^2b)

  2. Multiply the constants:

    • Multiply the constants 6 and 7: 6×7=426 \times 7 = 42

    Now the expression becomes: 42a4b3a2b42a^{-4}b^3a^2b

  3. Simplify the powers of aa and bb:

    • Combine the powers of aa: a4×a2=a4+2=a2a^{-4} \times a^2 = a^{-4 + 2} = a^{-2}

    • Combine the powers of bb: b3×b1=b3+1=b4b^3 \times b^1 = b^{3 + 1} = b^4

  4. Final Expression: Now we have: 42a2b442a^{-2}b^4

  5. Simplify further if needed:

    • We can rewrite a2a^{-2} as 1a2\frac{1}{a^2}.

    So, the fully simplified expression is: 42b4a2\frac{42b^4}{a^2}

Final Answer:

42b4a2\frac{42b^4}{a^2}
