Q. a5l23ba2 \frac{a^{5} l^{2}}{3} \cdot \frac{b}{a^{2}} \newlineWhich expression is equivalent to the product for all a>0 a>0 ?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) bl23a3 \frac{b l^{2}}{3 a^{3}} \newline(B) a7l23b \frac{a^{7} l^{2}}{3 b} \newline(C) bl23 \frac{b l^{2}}{3} \newline(D) a3bl23 \frac{a^{3} b l^{2}}{3}
  1. Identify properties of exponents: Write down the given expression and identify the properties of exponents that can be used to simplify it.\newlineGiven expression: (a5l2)/(3)(b)/(a2)(a^{5}l^{2})/(3)\cdot(b)/(a^{2})\newlineProperties of exponents to use: \newline- When multiplying powers with the same base, add the exponents.\newline- When dividing powers with the same base, subtract the exponents.
  2. Apply properties of exponents: Apply the properties of exponents to simplify the expression.\newlineSimplify the expression by dividing the powers of 'a':\newlinea5bl23a2\frac{a^{5} \cdot b \cdot l^{2}}{3 \cdot a^{2}}\newlineNow, divide the powers of 'a' by subtracting the exponents:\newlinea52bl2/3a^{5-2} \cdot b \cdot l^{2} / 3\newlineThis simplifies to:\newlinea3bl23\frac{a^{3} \cdot b \cdot l^{2}}{3}
  3. Simplify expression by dividing powers of 'a': Write the simplified expression in the form of the answer choices.\newlineThe simplified expression is:\newlinea3bl23\frac{a^{3} \cdot b \cdot l^{2}}{3}\newlineThis matches answer choice (D).
