If the question is ( (2*x^2) * (y^2) )^3, then the answer is
(8*x^6) * (y^6). Because 2^3 * x^(2*3) * y^(2*3)
But, if it is (2*x^(2*y^2))^3, then it is
8*x^( 6*(y^2) ) because it is 2^3 * x^(3 * y*y).
Presentation, interpretation, clarity, and standard nomenclature makes a world of difference!
Oh! And it's a form of nested exponentials. Sort of...

Help me with this polynomial? Or monomial?
(2x^2y^2)^3
Answer: (2x^2y^2)^3 = 2^3 times x^2(3) tines y^2(3) = 8x^6y^6
2 raised to the third power is 8.
x raised to the second power then multiplied by 3 is equal to x raised to the sixth power.
y raised to the second power then multiplied by 3 is equal to x raised to the sixth power.
