Q. Simplify. Express your answer using a single exponent. (11k7)2
Apply Power to Coefficient and Variable: Apply the power to both the coefficient and the variable.When raising a power to a power, we multiply the exponents, and when raising a coefficient to a power, we simply calculate the power of the number.(11k7)2=112×(k7)2
Calculate Power of Coefficient: Calculate the power of the coefficient. 112=11×11=121
Apply Power to Variable: Apply the power to the variable with the exponent.(k7)2=k(7×2)=k14
Combine Results: Combine the results from Step 2 and Step 3. 121×k14
