Q. Simplify. Express your answer using a single exponent.(2h3)3
Apply power rule: Apply the power of a power rule.The power of a power rule states that when you raise a power to another power, you multiply the exponents. In this case, we have (2h3)3, which means we need to raise both 2 and h3 to the power of 3.(2h3)3=23×(h3)3
Calculate 23: Calculate 23.23 means 2 multiplied by itself 3 times.23=2×2×2=8
Calculate (h3)3: Calculate (h3)3. Using the power of a power rule, we multiply the exponents 3 and 3. (h3)3=h(3∗3)=h9
Combine results: Combine the results.Now we combine the results from Step 2 and Step 3 to get the final simplified expression.(2h3)3=23×h9=8h9
