Q. Simplify. Express your answer using a single exponent. (11y3)2
Apply Power to Base and Exponent: Apply the power to both the base number and the exponent of the variable.When raising a power to a power, we multiply the exponents, and when raising a number to a power, we simply calculate the number to that power.(11y3)2=112×(y3)2
Calculate 112: Calculate 112.112=11×11=121
Calculate (y3)2: Calculate (y3)2.When raising a power to another power, we multiply the exponents.(y3)2=y(3×2)=y6
Combine Results for Final Expression: Combine the results from Step 2 and Step 3 to write the final simplified expression.(11y3)2=121×y6=121y6
