Describe how you would simplify the given expression.

Answer:

To simplify the expression, first simplify inside the parentheses by dividing the coefficients (20/5 4) and subtracting the exponents for each base (5 (3) 8 for x, and 2 7 5 for y), which results in 4x^8y^5. Next, raise the resulting expression to the 3 power by multiplying the exponents (8 * 3 24 and 5 * 3 15). Finally, rewrite the expression using positive exponents. Alternatively, you could first raise the numerator and denominator to the 3 power using the power of a power property, then divide coefficients and subtract exponents.
