Full solution

Q. Simplify. Express your answer using a single exponent.\newline(7u3)2(7u^3)^2
  1. Apply Power Rule: Apply the power to a power rule.\newlineWhen raising a power to another power, we multiply the exponents. For the expression (7u3)2(7u^3)^2, we apply the exponent of 22 to both the base 77 and the exponent of u3u^3.\newline(7u3)2=72×(u3)2(7u^3)^2 = 7^2 \times (u^3)^2
  2. Calculate 727^2: Calculate 727^2.\newline727^2 is 77 multiplied by itself.\newline72=7×7=497^2 = 7 \times 7 = 49
  3. Calculate (u3)2(u^3)^2: Calculate (u3)2(u^3)^2. When raising a power to another power, we multiply the exponents. The exponent for uu is 33, and we are raising it to the power of 22. (u3)2=u(3×2)=u6(u^3)^2 = u^{(3 \times 2)} = u^6
  4. Combine Results: Combine the results from Step 22 and Step 33.\newlineWe have found that 72=497^2 = 49 and (u3)2=u6(u^3)^2 = u^6. Now we combine these to express the simplified form of the original expression.\newline(7u3)2=49×u6=49u6(7u^3)^2 = 49 \times u^6 = 49u^6
