Q. (8j15)32Which of the following expressions is equivalent to the given expression?Choose 1 answer:(A) 4j10(B) 512j30(C) 8j10(D) 8j30
Understand expression and properties: Understand the given expression and the properties of exponents that can be applied.The given expression is (8j15)32. We can apply the property of exponents that states (anm)=(am)n1 or the nth root of am.
Apply exponent rule: Apply the exponent rule to the given expression.We can rewrite the expression as (j15⋅(32))/(832). This simplifies the exponentiation by distributing the (32) exponent to both the numerator and the denominator.
Calculate new exponents: Calculate the new exponents for both the numerator and the denominator.For the numerator: 15×(32)=10.For the denominator: 832 is the cube root of 8 squared, which is 22 since 8 is 23. So, 832=22=4.
Rewrite expression with new exponents: Rewrite the expression with the new exponents.The expression now becomes 4j10.
Match simplified expression with choices: Match the simplified expression with the given choices.The expression (j10)/4 corresponds to choice (A) (j10)/(4).
