Q 1. - Algebra 1

Question

Simplify each expression.

$\left(x^3\right)\left(4x^5\right)$

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The required simplified value is represented by $\mathbf{4}{\mathit{x}}^{\mathbf{8}}$.

Step 1. Write the variables in a separate parenthesis.

Isolate the variables by using the separate parentheses.

$\left(4\right)\left(x^5{x}^3\right)$

Step 2. Simplify the exponential terms.

Perform addition between the exponents having the same bases.

$4\left(x^{5+3}\right)=4x^8$

Step 3. Write the conclusion.

The obtained expression is $4x^8$ which cannot be simplified further so it’s the required simplification.
