Full solution

Q. Simplify. Express your answer using a single exponent. \newline(7q8)2(7q^8)^2
  1. Apply Power Rule: Apply the power to a power rule.\newlineWhen raising a power to another power, we multiply the exponents. We also raise the numerical coefficient to the power of 22.\newline(7q8)2=72×(q8)2(7q^8)^2 = 7^2 \times (q^8)^2
  2. Calculate 727^2: Calculate 727^2.\newline72=7×7=497^2 = 7 \times 7 = 49
  3. Calculate (q8)2(q^8)^2: Calculate (q8)2(q^8)^2.(q8)2=q(8×2)=q16(q^8)^2 = q^{(8 \times 2)} = q^{16}
  4. Combine Results: Combine the results from Step 22 and Step 33.\newline(7q8)2=49×q16(7q^8)^2 = 49 \times q^{16}
