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

hey man, the answer to this question is A:each side of the original square is 1/4 the length of the scale model.

Step-by-step explanation: It’s A because if if was created by using the factor of 4, then the original side must have been 2 because 8 divided by 4 is 2. and 2 is 1/4 of 8. Hope this helps!
