simplify (-4y^4)^3

Solution

simplify

(- 4 y^{4})^{3}

Solution

- 64 y^{12}

Solution steps

(- 4 y^{4})^{3}

Apply exponent rule:

(- a)^{n} = - a^{n},

if

n

is odd

(- 4 y^{4})^{3} = - (4 y^{4})^{3}

= - (4 y^{4})^{3}

Apply exponent rule:

(a \cdot b)^{n} = a^{n} b^{n}

(4 y^{4})^{3} = 4^{3} (y^{4})^{3}

= - 4^{3} (y^{4})^{3}

4^{3} = 64

= - 64 (y^{4})^{3}

Apply exponent rule:

(a^{b})^{c} = a^{b c},

assuming

a \geq 0

(y^{4})^{3} = y^{4 \cdot 3}

= - 64 y^{4 \cdot 3}

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 3 = 12

= - 64 y^{12}
