Find the product. (y 3) 2 · y 7 y17 y12 y42 y13

Answer:=

y^ (97)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

(y 3) 2 * y 7 * y17 * y12 * y42 * y13

We can apply the law of indices for the multiplication of the given expression

The law one to be specific states that If the two terms have the same base (in this case y) and are to be multiplied together their indices are added.

Y^m*y^n = y^ (m+n)

= (y 3) 2 * y 7 * y17 * y12 * y42 * y13

=y 6 * y 7 * y17 * y12 * y42 * y13

=y^ (6+7+17+12+42+13)

=y^ (97)

(y^3) ^2 * y^7

=y^13

the other answer missinterpreted the question, but seriously next time when there is an exponent signify it with "^"
