Simplify the expression (16b13)32\left(16 b^{\frac{1}{3}}\right)^{\frac{3}{2}} as a power of bb.

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are given the expression (16b13)3\left(16 b^{\frac{1}{3}}\right)^{\frac{3}{}}. . We want to write this expression as a power.

STEP 2

First, we need to understand that when we raise a power to another power, we multiply the exponents. This is a basic rule of exponents.(am)n=am×n\left(a^m\right)^n = a^{m \times n}

STEP 3

Apply the rule of exponents to the given expression. We have two parts in the expression,16 and b13b^{\frac{1}{3}}, and both are raised to the power of 32\frac{3}{2}.
(16b13)32=1632×(b13)32\left(16 b^{\frac{1}{3}}\right)^{\frac{3}{2}} =16^{\frac{3}{2}} \times \left(b^{\frac{1}{3}}\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}

STEP 4

Now, calculate the power of16.1632=16316^{\frac{3}{2}} = \sqrt{16^3}

STEP 5

Calculate the value of 16316^3.
163=40916^3 =409

STEP 6

Now, calculate the square root of4096.
4096=64\sqrt{4096} =64

STEP 7

Now, calculate the power of b13b^{\frac{1}{3}}.
(b13)32=b13×32\left(b^{\frac{1}{3}}\right)^{\frac{3}{2}} = b^{\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{3}{2}}

STEP 8

Multiply the exponents.
b13×32=b12b^{\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{3}{2}} = b^{\frac{1}{2}}

STEP 9

Now, combine the results from steps6 and8 to write the original expression as a power.
(16b3)32=64b2\left(16 b^{\frac{}{3}}\right)^{\frac{3}{2}} =64b^{\frac{}{2}}So, (16b3)32\left(16 b^{\frac{}{3}}\right)^{\frac{3}{2}} as a power is 64b264b^{\frac{}{2}}.
