Question

multiplication properties of exponents

1. ((-2u^2)(6u^6))

Explanation:

Step1: Multiply the coefficients

$(-2) \times 6 = -12$

Step2: Multiply the variable terms

$u^2 \times u^6 = u^{2+6} = u^8$

Step3: Combine the results

Multiply the coefficient product and variable product together.

Answer:

$-12u^8$
