Simplify open parentheses x to the two thirds power close parentheses to the four fifths power.
a. x to the eight fifteenths power
b. x to the two eighths power
c. x to the six eighths power
d. x to the two fifths power

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

We need to find the simplified form of the given expression.

According to the exponent property: If a, m and n are three non zero real numbers, then

Using the above property of exponent, we get

The simplified form of the given expression is x to the eight fifteenths power.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

the mistake in the pattern is that :

b. the decimal point was moved one too many place values each time

the correct pattern could be made by :

b. moving the decimal point to the right the same numbers of place values as the exponents

a

step-by-step explanation:

the denominator cannot be the same as one of the factors.

8 denominator times 2 denominator = 16

and 7 numerator time 11 = 77

77/16= 77/16 ( they cannot be further simplified)
