Choose the correct simplification of (9xy^5)^2. A) 18x^2y^10
B) 18x^2y^7
C) 81x^2y^7
D) 81x^2y^10​

D) 81x²y¹⁰

Step-by-step explanation:

(9xy⁵)²

Because all of 9xy⁵ are in the parentheses, each component is raised to the 2nd degree.

(9)² = 81

(x)² = x²

(y⁵)² = y¹⁰ -- When you raise an exponent to another exponent, you multiply the exponents.

Now combine the components.

D) 81x²y¹⁰

problem:

f(x) = - 2/3x + 5; f(5/2)

substitute 5/2 in for x:

f(5/2) = -2/3(5/2) + 5

simplify the right side:

f(5/2) = -5/3 + 5

f(5/2) = 10/3

f(5/2) = 10/3

i hope this !
