Question

Express each of the following prducts as a monomials and verify the result in each case for x=1: Evaluate when a=1 and b = 0.5

Philoid · Accepted Answer

2.3a⁵b² × 1.2a²b²

= 2.3 × 1.2 × a⁵ × a² × b² × b²

= 2.76 × a⁷ × b⁴

= 2.76a⁷b⁴

Verification:

a = 1 and b = 0.5

2.76 a⁷ b⁴ = 2.76 (1)⁷ (0.5)⁴

= 2.76 × 1 × 0.0025

= 0.1725
