Example Question #911 : High School Math

$(x^{5})^3=$

Possible Answers:

$x^{15}$

$x^{25}$

$x^{75}$

x^2

x^8

Correct answer:

$x^{15}$

Explanation:

According to the power rule of exponents, you multiply the exponents when you raise a power to a power.

$(x^5)^3=x^{5 * 3}=x^{15}$

Example Question #912 : High School Math

(3^2)^4=?

Possible Answers:

1296

729

6561

Correct answer:

6561

Explanation:

According to the power rule for exponents, we can simplify (3^2)^4=3^8 and

3^8=6561

Example Question #913 : High School Math

Simplify the following expression.

$2^{3}*2^{5}$

Possible Answers:

$4^{15}$

$2^{2}$

$2^{15}$

$4^{8}$

$2^{8}$

Correct answer:

$2^{8}$

Explanation:

$2^{3}*2^{5}$

This expression is a product of exponents with like bases. In these situations, we should use the product rule, which states that we should add the exponents.

$2^3*2^5=2^{3+5}=2^8$

Example Question #914 : High School Math

Simplify $2^{4}2^{12}$ without evaluating.

Possible Answers:

Cannot be simplified

$2^{14}$

$2^{24}$

$2^{8}$

$2^{16}$

Correct answer:

$2^{16}$

Explanation:

When multilping 2 numbers with exponents, if the bases are the same, they can be combined and the exponents add together.

Example Question #2 : How To Use The Product Rule For Exponents In Pre Algebra

Evaluate $\dpi{100} \frac{x^{(4x^{2}-3x+7)}}{x^{(2x^{2}+2x-6)}}$

Possible Answers:

$x^{2x^{2}-5x+13}$

$\dpi{100} x^{4x^{2}-10x+26}$

$\dpi{100} x^{x^{2}-2x+6}$

$\dpi{100} x^{x^{2}-x+7}$

$x^{4x-7}$

Correct answer:

$x^{2x^{2}-5x+13}$

Explanation:

The quotient rule for exponents states that when like numbers are raised to a certain power, then their exponents are subtracted from one another.

$\dpi{100} \dpi{100} \frac{x^{(4x^{2}-3x+7)}}{x^{(2x^{2}+2x-6)}}=x^{(4x^{2}-3x+7)-(2x^{2}+2x-6)}$

Solve for the exponent equation.

$(4x^{2}-3x+7)-(2x^{2}+2x-6)=4x^{2}-3x+7-2x^{2}-2x+6$

Combine like terms.

$\rightarrow (2x^{2}-5x+13)$

Therefore,

$\dpi{100} \dpi{100} \frac{x^{(4x^{2}-3x+7)}}{x^{(2x^{2}+2x-6)}}=x^{2x^{2}-5x+13}$

Example Question #3 : How To Use The Product Rule For Exponents In Pre Algebra

Simplify the expression.

(2x^2)(5x^3)

Possible Answers:

7x^5

10x^6

10x

10x^5

7x^6

Correct answer:

10x^5

Explanation:

Since all terms are being multiplied, we can simplify by grouping like terms together.

(2x^2)(5x^3)

(2*5)(x^2*x^3)

To simplify the variable, we can add the exponents according to exponential identities.

$(2*5)(x^{2+3})$

10x^5

Example Question #4 : How To Use The Product Rule For Exponents In Pre Algebra

Simplify the expression.

(3x^2y)(2xy^2)^2

Possible Answers:

36x^4y^5

12x^4y^5

36x^9y^9

12x^9y^9

Correct answer:

12x^4y^5

Explanation:

(3x^2y)(2xy^2)^2

Begin by distributing the exponent into the parentheses. Remember that each term in the parentheses must be squared.

(3x^2y)(4x^2y^4)

All terms are now being multiplied. To make it simpler, we can re-group by like terms.

(3*4)(x^2*x^2)(y*y^4)

Multiplying exponential terms with the same base allows us to add the exponents.

$12x^{2+2}y^{1+4}=12x^4y^5$

Example Question #915 : High School Math

Which of the following is a simplified expression of X³X²?

Possible Answers:

$X\cdot 6$

$X^{6}$

$X^{1}$

$X^{5}$

$X\cdot X^{2}$

Correct answer:

$X^{5}$

Explanation:

When you multiply two exponential expressions with the same base, add the exponents to simplify the expression.

$X^{3}X^{2}=X^{5}$

Report an Error

Example Question #916 : High School Math

Which of the following is an alternate expression of X³Y³?

Possible Answers:

$(XY)^{6}$

$(X\cdot Y)^{9}$

$(X\cdot Y)^{3}$

$(X+Y)^{3}$

$X^{6}$

Correct answer:

$(X\cdot Y)^{3}$

Explanation:

When you are required to multiply exponential expressions with different bases but the same exponent, you can simplify the expression by adding parentheses and only using the exponent one time.

$X^{3}Y^{3}=(X\cdot Y)^{3}$

Report an Error

Example Question #917 : High School Math

Which of the following is equivalent to the expression:

$3^{6}\cdot3^{-4}$ ?

Possible Answers:

$\frac{1}{9}$

$\frac{1}{27}$

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Recall that when we are multiplying exponential expressions with the same base, we add the exponents and keep the base the same. Additionally, remember that adding a negative number is equivalent to subtracting.

$3^{6} \cdot3^{-4} = 3^{6 + -4} = 3^{2} = 9$
