Question

write each expression using exponents 4 x p x 4 x p

Answer 1

Answer:

$4 * p * 4 * p = 4^2p^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$4 * p * 4 * p$

Required

Write as exponents

$4 * p * 4 * p$

Rearrange to collect Like Terms

$4 * 4 *p * p$

Group both items

$(4 * 4) *(p * p)$

Apply law of indices

$(4^{1+1})(p^{1+1})$

$(4^2)(p^2)$

Remove bracket

$4^2p^2$

Hence:

$4 * p * 4 * p = 4^2p^2$
