Simplifying an expression with the numerator and the denominator raised to a power

The answer to your question is    the second option    

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression

Process

1.- Divide the fraction in numerator and denominator

a) Numerator  

 [(x²y³)⁻²]³ = (x⁻⁴y⁻⁶)³ = x⁻¹²y⁻¹⁸

b) Denominator

 [(x⁶y³z)²]²= (x¹²y⁶z²)³ = x³⁶y¹⁸z⁶

2.- Simplify like terms

a) x⁻¹²x⁻³⁶ = x⁻⁴⁸

b) y⁻¹⁸y⁻¹⁸= y⁻³⁶

c) z⁻⁶

3.- Write the fraction

v = 1/3 a^2h

step-by-step explanation:

if the height is 57.7cm and the height of the slant edge is 18.2cm, then the volume is 1/3 a^2h.
