Q. Simplify. Express your answer using a single exponent.(11b3)2
Apply Power Rule: Apply the power of a power rule to the expression (11b3)2. When raising a power to another power, we multiply the exponents. The coefficient 11 is also raised to the power of 2. (11b3)2=112×(b3)2
Calculate 112: Calculate 112.112=11×11=121
Calculate (b3)2: Calculate (b3)2.(b3)2=b(3×2)=b6
Combine Results: Combine the results from Step 2 and Step 3. 121×b6=121b6
