simplify (-4x^4)^2

Solution

simplify

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

Solution

16 x^{8}

Solution steps

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

Apply exponent rule:

(- a)^{n} = a^{n},

if

n

is even

(- 4 x^{4})^{2} = (4 x^{4})^{2}

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

Apply exponent rule:

(a \cdot b)^{n} = a^{n} b^{n}

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

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

4^{2} = 16

= 16 (x^{4})^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

(a^{b})^{c} = a^{b c},

assuming

a \geq 0

(x^{4})^{2} = x^{4 \cdot 2}

= 16 x^{4 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 2 = 8

= 16 x^{8}
