Ellie wants to rewrite the expression (a2)2 ∙ (a3)2 as a single exponent of the form an. she claims that n = 36 because 22 · 32 = 4 · 9 = 36. decide if ellie is correct. if she is correct, enter 36 below. if she is not correct, enter the correct value of n.

Hello!

you writted the equation (a2)2 ∙ (a3)2, wich i tink means:

((a^2)^2)*((a^3)^2)

First let's write some relations:

Now we have the equation

Then Ellie is incorrect, the correct exponent of the simplification is n = 10.

square root of 36/6 = 2.449489743

square root of 16/6 = 1.632993162

square root of 6 = 2.449489743

the answer is square root of 16/6 because the square root of 36/6 is the same answer as square root of 6 = 2.449489743
