Q. Simplify. Express your answer using a single exponent. (11t7)2
Apply Power Separately: Apply the power to both the base number and the variable separately.When raising a power to a power, we multiply the exponents for the variable. For the base number, we simply square it.(11t7)2=112×(t7)2
Calculate Base Number Square: Calculate the square of the base number 11. 112=11×11=121
Multiply Variable Exponents: Multiply the exponents for the variable t.(t7)2=t(7×2)=t14
Combine Results: Combine the results from Step 2 and Step 3 to write the final simplified expression.(11t7)2=121×t14=121t14
