How do you do an exponent in parentheses to another exponent outside of it
To multiply exponential terms with the same base, add the exponents. An exponentapplies only to the value to its immediate left. When a quantity in parentheses is raised to a power, the exponent applies to everything inside the parentheses. Simplify the expression, keeping the answer in exponential notation.
If the exponent is like this (x^2)^2 then you multiply the exponents. If it's like this (x^2) (x^2) then just add the exponents
