simplify (-6a^2)^3

Solution

simplify

(- 6 a^{2})^{3}

Solution

- 216 a^{6}

Solution steps

(- 6 a^{2})^{3}

Apply exponent rule:

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

if

n

is odd

(- 6 a^{2})^{3} = - (6 a^{2})^{3}

= - (6 a^{2})^{3}

Apply exponent rule:

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

(6 a^{2})^{3} = 6^{3} (a^{2})^{3}

= - 6^{3} (a^{2})^{3}

6^{3} = 216

= - 216 (a^{2})^{3}

Apply exponent rule:

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

assuming

a \geq 0

(a^{2})^{3} = a^{2 \cdot 3}

= - 216 a^{2 \cdot 3}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 3 = 6

= - 216 a^{6}
