Answer:
40 x⁸y⁸
Step-by-step explanation:
When multiplying numbers that have powers to the same base, we simply add the indices and multiply the coefficients of the common bases.
To solve -5x²y⁴ multiplied by -8x⁶y⁴, we add the indices that have a common base.
-5x²y⁴× -8x⁶y⁴= (-5)(-8)x⁽²⁺⁶⁾y⁽⁴⁺⁴⁾
=40x⁸y⁸
A negative number multiplied by a negative= positive number
Answer:
product of 5x²y⁴ and -8x⁶y⁴ = 40x⁸y⁸
Step-by-step explanation:
Points to remember
Identities
Xᵃ * Xᵇ = X⁽ᵃ ⁺ ᵇ⁾
Xᵃ/Xᵇ = X⁽ᵃ ⁻ ᵇ⁾
It is given that, -5x²y⁴ and -8x⁶y⁴
To find the product of -5x²y⁴ and -8x⁶y⁴
( -5x²y⁴ ) * ( -8x⁶y⁴) = (-5 * -8) *x² *x⁶ * y⁴ * y⁴
= 40 * x⁽² ⁺ ⁶⁾ * y⁽⁴ ⁺ ⁴⁾
= 40 * x⁸ * y⁸
= 40x⁸y⁸
