Expanding (3n^3)^2 without Exponents
The expression (3n^3)^2 involves exponents, but we can rewrite it without them using the rules of exponents. Here's how:
Understanding the Rules
- Power of a Product: (ab)^n = a^n * b^n
- Power of a Power: (a^m)^n = a^(m*n)
Applying the Rules
-
Apply the Power of a Product Rule: (3n^3)^2 = 3^2 * (n^3)^2
-
Apply the Power of a Power Rule: 3^2 * (n^3)^2 = 3^2 * n^(3*2)
-
Simplify: 3^2 * n^(3*2) = 9 * n^6
Final Result:
Therefore, (3n^3)^2 expanded without exponents is 9n^6.
