Question

simplify. express your answer using positive exponents.
(5h)(10h³)

Explanation:

Step1: Multiply the coefficients

Multiply 5 and 10: \(5\times10 = 50\)

Step2: Multiply the variables with exponents

Using the rule \(a^m\times a^n=a^{m + n}\), for \(h\times h^3\), we have \(h^{1+3}=h^4\)

Step3: Combine the results

Multiply the coefficient result and the variable result: \(50\times h^4 = 50h^4\)

Answer:

\(50h^4\)
