exponent means a power = x^2 ......
In general:
b) (2xy)^3 = 2^3 x x^3 x y^3 = 8 x^3 y ^3
b) (x^2/2y)^3 = x ^ 2x3 / 2^3 y^3 = x^6/8y^3
Let's go through some more.....
Notes:
Expanding is removing the brackets
Brackets are the operand of multipy
Collect like terms and simplify to complete the expression
Expand the following expression: 2(x + 3)
