If the quantity 4 times x times y cubed plus 8 times x squared times y to the fifth power all over 2 times x times y squared is completely simplified to 2xayb + 4xcyd, where a, b, c, and d represent integer exponents, what is the value of a? _______

Numerical Answers Expected!

Respuesta :

a=0.


(4xy^3+8x^2y^5)/(2xy^2) (4xy^3+8x^2y^5)/(2xy^2)  Since 2xy^2 is a common factor we have

Go to do 2y+4xy^3

Then do 2y=2x^ay^b

Then Do x^0=x^a


Then, you'll get the answer of a=0.
