Question

Please help here is the problem!

Answer 1

Answer: k^2*p^6

Work Shown:

s = length of each side

s = kp^3

A = area of square

A = s^2

A = s*s

A = (kp^3)*(kp^3)

A = (k*k)*(p^3*p^3)

A = k^2*p^6

To multiply the terms, you add the exponents. Think of k as k^1, so k*k = k^1*k^1 = k^(1+1) = k^2
