00:01 The given expression is y to the power a multiplied by y to the power 2a.
00:06 In this question we have to find the simplified form of the given expression.
00:11 We know that let a raise to the power m multiplied by a to the power n be an exponential function then it can be written as a to the power m plus n because the exponential function has same base a and a.
00:27 So apply this rule to simplify it...
