Simplify (6x^-2)^2(0.5x)^4.

Question

Please show work…I am not very good at this. I don’t understand, so if you can please show steps. Thank you!

Answer 1

Just remember a couple of basic rule
(ab)^n = a^n * b^n
(a^m)^n = a^(mn)
a^m * a^n = a^(m+n)

(6x^-2)^2(0.5x)^4
6^2 x^-4 * 1/2^4 * x^4
36/16 x^0
9/4
