u^3·u·u^5

To simplify this expression, we can add the exponents:

u^(3+1+5) = u^9

Multiply.

9y(−3y^8)
SIMPLIFY AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE

To simplify this expression, we can multiply the coefficients and add the exponents:

9 * -3 = -27
y^1 * y^8 = y^(1+8) = y^9

Therefore, the simplified expression is -27y^9.

Factor

−15a^3-12a^2

To factor the expression −15a^3 - 12a^2, we can first find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the two terms. The GCF of -15 and -12 is 3. The GCF of a^3 and a^2 is a^2.

So, we can factor out the GCF from each term:

-15a^3 - 12a^2 = 3a^2(-5a - 4)

Therefore, the factored form of the expression −15a^3 - 12a^2 is 3a^2(-5a - 4).

To simplify the expression u^3 · u · u^5, we can combine the like terms by adding their exponents.

First, let's rewrite the expression in terms of u raised to the power of one:
u^3 · u · u^5 = u^(3+1+5)

Now, sum up the exponents:
u^(3+1+5) = u^9

Therefore, the simplified expression is u^9.

To simplify the expression u^3 · u · u^5, let's start by combining the like terms by adding their exponents.

The expression can be rewritten as u^(3 + 1 + 5), which simplifies to u^9.

Therefore, the simplified form of the expression u^3 · u · u^5 is u^9.
