Sylvie bakes 4 trays of muffins. Each tray contains 8 muffins. She gives away 12 muffins to friends. Let m represent the number of muffins Sylvie has left. Which equation could be used to find the value of m? 4 + 8 + 12 = m 4 × 8 + 12 = m 4+8−12=m 4×8−12=m

4x8-12=m

Step-by-step explanation:

4 trays x each containing 8 muffins - 12 muffins(giving away)

use the power rule  

( a b ) n = a n b n

to distribute the exponent.

apply the product rule to  

3 x 2 y 3 . ( 3 x 2 ) 2 ( y 3 ) 2

apply the product rule to  

3 x 2 . 3 2 ( x 2 ) 2 ( y 3 ) 2

raise  

3

to the power of  

2 . 9 ( x 2 ) 2 ( y 3 ) 2 multiply the exponents in   ( x 2 ) 2

.

apply the power rule and multiply exponents,  

( a m ) n = a m n . 9 x 2 ⋅ 2 ( y 3 ) 2

multiply  

2   by   2 . 9 x 4 ( y 3 ) 2

multiply the exponents in  

( y 3 ) 2 .

apply the power rule and multiply exponents,  

( a m ) n = a m n . 9 x 4 y 3

⋅

2

multiply  

3   by   2 . 9 x 4 y 6
