%285x%5E3y%5E4%29%5E2 Start with the given expression.


%285%5E1x%5E3y%5E4%29%5E2 Rewrite 5 as 5%5E1


5%5E%281%2A2%29x%5E%283%2A2%29y%5E%284%2A2%29 Multiply the outer exponent by EVERY exponent in the parenthesis.


5%5E2x%5E6y%5E8 Multiply


25x%5E6y%5E8 Square 5 to get 25


So %285x%5E3y%5E4%29%5E2=25x%5E6y%5E8
