Q. Simplify. Express your answer using a single exponent.(7d2)2
Apply Power Rule: Apply the power of a power rule to (7d2)2. The power of a power rule states that (am)n=am∗n. We will apply this rule to both the numerical coefficient and the variable with its exponent. (7d2)2=72×(d2)2
Calculate Square of 7: Calculate the square of 7. 72=7×7=49
Apply Power Rule to d2: Apply the power of a power rule to (d2)2.(d2)2=d(2∗2)=d4
Combine Results: Combine the results from Step 2 and Step 3.The simplified expression is 49×d4.
