simplify (-5x^4)^3

Solution

simplify

(- 5 x^{4})^{3}

Solution

- 125 x^{12}

Solution steps

(- 5 x^{4})^{3}

Apply exponent rule:

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

if

n

is odd

(- 5 x^{4})^{3} = - (5 x^{4})^{3}

= - (5 x^{4})^{3}

Apply exponent rule:

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

(5 x^{4})^{3} = 5^{3} (x^{4})^{3}

= - 5^{3} (x^{4})^{3}

5^{3} = 125

= - 125 (x^{4})^{3}

Apply exponent rule:

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

assuming

a \geq 0

(x^{4})^{3} = x^{4 \cdot 3}

= - 125 x^{4 \cdot 3}

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 3 = 12

= - 125 x^{12}
