Mrs. Nelson gave her students a task: Start with the expression 2x^4.

Add, subtract, multiply, divide, or use exponents to make a new expression that is equivalent to 16x^10.

The answers of several students are shown below. For each student, determine if they are right or wrong. Then explain why using your exponent rules.​

Susana:

x^7(2x^3+14x^3)

Susana:

Right or Wrong?

Why?

Right

Step-by-step explanation:

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

25x^2 + 90x + 84

discussion:

mn(x) = m(n(x)) = m( 5x + 9) =

(5x + 9)^2 + 3 =>

25x^2 + 90x + 9^2 + 3 =

25x^2 + 90x + 84                 (as 9^2 = 9*9 = 81)

which is the second choice
