Question

Write (x^2)^4 without any exponents.

Answer 1

x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x or xxxx*xx or x*x x*x x*x x*x

Explanation:

Answer 2

(x * x) * (x * x) * (x * x) * (x * x)

Explanation:

(y^4) is the same thing as y * y * y * y

so for y = (x^2), we can write (x^2)^4 as:

(x^2) * (x^2) * (x^2) * (x^2)

and each (x^2) is just x * x

so, this is how you can write it!

(x * x) * (x * x) * (x * x) * (x * x)
