Multiplying Monomials

[enriqueisawsome78]

how do you do somthing like (-7ab^4)^3[(2a^2c)^2]3? please reply!

[Juicyberry10]

When the exponent is outside the bracet, and you multiply it in with all the numbers, does tht also include the base number or just the exponents?

[deathbyzza420]

catholic schoool?...oxymoron



[Madddoggydog]

What if you have different variables like 3a^2x^2)(4a^3y^4

[Papapodcasts]

@Madddoggydog It doesn't change. Remember that the part of adding the exponents only works if the letters are the same otherwise just combine all the terms, writing them all side by side.

Mr.P

[DazzleRush]

how about when the number is outside the bracket?

example: (a^3x^2)^4

[Papapodcasts]

@DazzleRush Multiply the 4 with all the exponents inside the brackets. Good luck with your studies.

[PainlesSuicidE]

thanks i actually learned more from this 5minute video than i class..but i have a few problems what if their is some letters and numbers outside the ( ) for example

C^3 D^2 (C^2 D - 2D) and also how would you subtract the 2D ? please try to reply as soon as possible

[Papapodcasts]

@PainlesSuicidE You'll have to use distributive law to multiply the C^3D^2 with both terms inside the brackets. So combine the C^3 and C^4 and the D^2 and D together to give you C^7 D^3. Now combine C^3 D^3 with the -2D and you get 2C^3 D^3. The 2 in front of the C^3 came from the 2D. Always put these coefficients in front of the variable terms. I hope this helped, but personally in math, it's easier to show it than explain it in words. Good luck with your studies.

[TheJeterfan223]

ok well my teacher told us that like if.. heres an example

(3x^2)(5x^3)

ok so u add the exponents to get 15x^5 but she told us that doing both of the x's adds 1 to the power is that true or did i hear her wrong plzzz reply as fast as ppossible

[Papapodcasts]

@TheJeterfan223 No your mistaken. You are right with the answer 15x^5. This is what your teacher probably was trying to get at. Let's make a modification to the question and re-write it as: (3x)(5x). Notice how there are no exponents, however, there really is an imaginary exponent and that is the 1. So this answer would be 15x^2, as both x's without a showing exponent, really has a 1 for an exponent. Hope this clears things up for you.

[Angjelo98]

That was really helpful

I appreciate it!!

thanks dude!!

[Kflip237]

So, If the question was (2yz)(-3y [to the power of 3])

The answer would be : -6y[to the power of 4]z ?

=)

[Papapodcasts]

@Kflip237 Yes you are correct. Good job. They're not that hard but be careful with ones like those. They require you to break it down like that. Thanks for watching. Best of luck.

Mr.P

[Fallenm98]

what if there is only one exponent example:(4c)(7c power of 5)?

[Papapodcasts]

@Fallenm98 Ah, but there are 2 exponents. The 4c is ^1 but we don't write it. So the answer would be 28c^6

Hope that helped you. Thanks for watching.

Mr.P

[1996LimeGreen]

how do you do it if theres only variables like this one ( xy)(yz)

[Papapodcasts]

@1996LimeGreen Multiply the y's as normal and just place an x and a z around it. So it would be xy2z. So assume you are multiplying the lone letters by 1 for all such questions. Hope that helped you.

wha??..

Im slow minded for real, no one believes me but i'll have to watch this 5 or 829 times until i get it to click... then i forget in 3 dasys... but dont worry, my alg 2 midterms are in 2 days!

[alkomunist]

you're great but it'd be better if you stoped writing the whole thing and just explain it instead, cuzz we can't really read the whole thing anyway, soo just write the equation, thanks a lot, you're great.,

[Papapodcasts]

Thank you for the advice. I'll keep that in mind. I tried making some different videos from the first ones. Good luck with your studies.

Mr.P

[gianthobo123]

[Papapodcasts]

Thank you for your kind words. It means ALOT to me. Thanks for watching and best of luck with your studies.
