simplify (4ab2) (-5ab3) /10a2b2
Answers
Answer:
-2b^3
Step-by-step explanation:
STEP 1 : Equation at the end of step 1
(0-5ab3)
(((4a•(b2))•————————)•a2)•b2
10
Step 2:
-5ab3
Simplify —————
10
Canceling Out:
2.1 Canceling out 5 as it appears on both sides of the fraction line
Equation at the end of step 2:
-ab3
(((4a • (b2)) • ————) • a2) • b2
2
STEP 3 :
Equation at the end of step3 :
-ab3
((22ab2 • ————) • a2) • b2
2
STEP 4 : Multiplying exponential expressions
4.1 a1 multiplied by a1 = a(1 + 1) = a2
Multiplying exponential expressions :
4.2 b2 multiplied by b3 = b(2 + 3) = b5
Dividing exponents:
4.3 22 divided by 21 = 2(2 - 1) = 21 = 2
Equation at the end of step 4 :
(-2a2b5 • a2) • b2
STEP 5 : Multiplying exponential expressions
5.1 a2 multiplied by a2 = a(2 + 2) = a4
Equation at the end of step 5 :
-2a4b5 • b2
STEP 6 : Multiplying exponential expressions
b5 multiplied by b2 = b(5 + 2) = b7
Answer:
-2b^3 is the answer for question
