Q. Which expressions are equivalent to (d81)5 ?Choose all answers that apply:A. (d5)81B (d5)8C (8d)5D None of the above
Understanding Exponent Properties: Understand the properties of exponents. When raising a power to a power, you multiply the exponents. This is based on the property (am)n=am∗n.
Applying Exponent Property to the Expression: Apply the exponent property to the given expression.(d81)5=d(81⋅5)=d85
Checking Answer Choice A: Check each answer choice to see if it is equivalent to d5/8. A. (d5)1/8=d5∗(1/8)=d5/8 This matches our expression from Step 2, so choice A is equivalent.
Checking Answer Choice B: Check choice B.B. (d5)8=d(5×8)=d40This does not match our expression from Step 2, so choice B is not equivalent.
Checking Answer Choice C: Check choice C.C. (8d)5=(d1/8)5=d5/8This matches our expression from Step 2, so choice C is equivalent.
Checking Answer Choice D: Check choice D.D. None of the aboveSince we have found that choices A and C are equivalent to the given expression, choice D is not correct.
