ASAP simplify and show work. 1. (x^-6)^-3
2. (2x^4)(8x^15)
3. (xy^6)(xy)^3
4. a^4b^0(a^8)
5. (x^2)^2(5x^2)^3

b

step-by-step explanation:

multiply terms on numerator/ denominator by (x - 1)

= ← distribute numerator/ denominator

= ← simplify

=

= → b

c.

step-by-step explanation: it's not a. because 1/3 x 1/3 x 1/3 = 1/27 so that's not correct. | b. is also not correct because 7 x 7 1/3 is not actually 3 x 7 1/3 . and for d. multiplications are not additions so that left you with c. ( hope this out : d )
