Apply Power to Coefficient and Variables: We have the expression: (4xy)2. To simplify this expression, we need to apply the power to both the coefficient 4 and the variables x and y.
Raise Coefficient to Power of 2: First, we raise the coefficient to the power of 2: (42)=16.
Raise Variables to Power of 2: Next, we raise each variable to the power of 2: (x2) and (y2).
Combine Results: Now, we combine the results from the previous steps: 16×(x2)×(y2).
Final Simplified Expression: The fully simplified expression is 16x2y2.
