Full solution

Q. Write in exponential notation\newline(3a2b)4 \left(3 a^{2} b\right)^{4}
  1. Apply Power Rule: Apply the power of a power rule to the expression.\newlineThe power of a power rule states that (xm)n=x(mn)(x^m)^n = x^{(m*n)}. We will apply this rule to each part of the expression (3a2b)4(3a^{2}b)^{4}.
  2. Apply Rule to 343^4: Apply the power of a power rule to the term 343^{4}. Since 33 is a constant, we raise it to the power of 44: (31)4=314=34(3^1)^4 = 3^{1*4} = 3^4.
  3. Apply Rule to a8a^8: Apply the power of a power rule to the term a(24)a^{(2*4)}.\newlineFor the variable aa raised to the power of 22, we raise it to the power of 44: (a2)4=a(24)=a8(a^2)^4 = a^{(2*4)} = a^8.
  4. Apply Rule to b4b^4: Apply the power of a power rule to the term b4b^{4}. Since there is no exponent given for bb, we assume it is 11. Therefore, we raise bb to the power of 44: (b1)4=b14=b4(b^1)^4 = b^{1*4} = b^4.
  5. Combine Results: Combine the results from steps 22, 33, and 44.\newlineWe multiply the results of the individual terms together to get the final expression in exponential notation: 34×a8×b43^4 \times a^8 \times b^4.
