Which of the following is equivalent to \((10^2)^{n + 1}\)?

A. \(10^2(10^{2n})\)

B. \(10^2(10^{n + 1})\)

C. \(10^{2n + 3}\)

D. \(10(10^{2n})\)

E. \((10^{2n})^{2}\)

\((10^2)^{n + 1} = \)

\(=10^{2*(n + 1)} = \)

\(=10^{2n + 2} = \)

\(=10^{2n}*10^2\)

Answer: A.

\(=10^{2*(n + 1)} = \)

\(=10^{2n + 2} = \)

\(=10^{2n}*10^2\)

Answer: A.

Because \(10^{2n}*10^2= 10^{2n+2} \), while \(10^2(10^{n + 1})=10^{2+n+ 1}= 10^{n+ 3} \).
