Choose The Correct Description Of The Meaning Of The Expression

Choose the correct simplification of the expression (5a7b)2.?

In maths notation the symbol "^" represents an exponent.

I am assuming that you therefore mean (5a^7b)^2

ie (5 x "a" to the power 7 x b ) and the whole expression is then squared.
If this is the case then

(5a^7b)^2 = 25a^14b^2

(I presume the first answer that you quote is intended to be this!)

Which is the correct phrase, "pair of shoes" or "pairs of shoes"? How are they used?

With this question, one must consider both nouns SEPARATELY .For example : one pair is singular and many pairs is plural“A pair” automatically means : “two” so, the noun following the quantitive noun it modifies is always written in the plural. In both situations : “shoes” is plural .A person can own just one (1) pair of shoes or A person may own ten (10) pairs added “s” for pairs and then “s” for the plural of shoes . Both statements are correct. It is only the word: “pair” which changes depending on the number qualifying the noun: For example, one (1) pair (singular form), two pairs (plural form) , three pairs. (plural form). Other words called : “collective nouns” fall into this category. For example: “set” as in a set of golf- clubs or a set of dishes; “group” as in a group of girls; “swarm” as in a swarm of bees; “herd” as in a herd of cows etc.The words: golf- clubs, dishes, girls, bees, and cows end with an “s” for plural form.
