Q. Which expressions are equivalent to (4d)3 ?Choose all answers that apply:(A) 4d3(B) 3d4(C) (d41)3(D) None of the above
Express in Exponential Form: First, let's express the given expression 4d^{3} in exponential form using the property that na=an1.4d^{3} = d41^3 Now, we apply the power to a power rule, which states that (am)n=am∗n.d41^3 = d^{\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)*3} = d^{\frac{3}{4}}
Consider Option A: Now let's consider option A: 4d3. We convert this to exponential form: 4d3=(d3)41. Applying the power to a power rule: (d3)41=d43. This is the same as our expression from step 1, so option A is equivalent.
Consider Option B: Next, let's consider option B: 3d4. We convert this to exponential form: 3d4=(d4)31. Applying the power to a power rule: (d4)31=d34. This is not the same as our expression from step 1, so option B is not equivalent.
Consider Option C: Now let's consider option C: (d(1/4))3. This is the same as our initial expression from step 1, so option C is equivalent.
Option D: Option D states "None of the above," which is not correct because we have found that options A and C are equivalent to the given expression.
