Simplify the exponent in (4w^3z)^5

The physical fitness of an athlete is often measured by how much oxygen the athlete takes in (which is recorded in milliliters per kilogram, ml/kg). the mean maximum oxygen uptake for elite athletes has been found to be 60 with a standard deviation of 7.2. assume that the distribution is approximately normal.

Nick has box brads. he uses 4 brads for the first project. nick let’s b represent the original number of brads and finds that for the second project, the number of brads he uses is 8 more than half the difference of b and 4. write an expression to represent the number of brads he uses for the second project.
