Answer:

The answer for this equation is 2x⁶.

Explanation:

In order to solve the equation, you have to Take out the Constants.

$(20)/(10) {x}^(4) {x}^(2)$

Now you have to Simplify 20/10 to 2 because 10 divided by 20 is 2.

${2x}^(4) {x}^(2)$

And now you have to Use the product rule:

${x}^(a) {x}^(b) = {x}^(a + b)$

2x ^(4 + 2)

and lastly, you have to simplify 4 + 2 to 6.

${2x}^(6)$

Therefor, the answer for this equation is 2x⁶.
