Powered by AICombine like fractions: \(\frac{3a^2}{5} + \frac{2a^2}{5} = \frac{(3a^2 + 2a^2)}{5} = \frac{5a^2}{5}$, which simplifies to $a^2\).
To simplify \((5x^3)^2\), apply the power of a power property \((a^m)^n = a^{m \cdot n}\). Here, \(5^2\) remains as \(25\), and \((x^3)^2\) results in \(x^{3 \cdot 2}\) or \(x^6\), giving \(25x^6\).
Simplify first inside the parentheses: \(-x^2 + 3x^2 = 2x^2\). Square the result: \((2x^2)^2 = 4x^4\).
Substitute the given values into the expression: \((-3) \cdot 2\). The result is \(-6\).
The number 123,000,000 in scientific notation is expressed as \(1.23 \times 10^8\). Move the decimal point 8 places to the left to obtain \(1.23\), maintaining the factor of ten to power eight .
First, distribute 7 in \(7(3 + a^2b)\) resulting in \(21 + 7a^2b\). Next, distribute \(-2\) in \(-2(5a^2b - 7)\) resulting in \(-10a^2b + 14\). Combine like terms: \((21 + 14) + (7a^2b - 10a^2b)\) to get \(35 - 3a^2b\).
Combine similar terms inside the square root: \( \sqrt{25x^6}\). Break down into \(\sqrt{(5x^3)^2}\), which simplifies to \(5x^3\) because the square root and the square cancel each other out .
When simplifying \((-2m^2)(3m^3)\), multiply the coefficients to get \(-6\) and use the product property \(m^am^b = m^{a+b}\), resulting in \(m^{2+3}\) or \(m^5\). The final result is \(-6m^5\).
Since \(3^{x+y} = 3^x \cdot 3^y\), substitute the given values to get \(6 \cdot 4 = 24\). Thus, \(3^{x+y} = 24\).
To convert \(2.56 \times 10^4\) to standard notation, move the decimal point four places to the right, resulting in 25,600 .
