Example Question #55 : Exponents
Solve:
When multiplying expressions with the same variable, combine terms by adding the exponents, while leaving the variable unchanged. For this problem, we do that by adding (1/2)+(1/2), to get a new exponent of 1:
Example Question #56 : Exponents
Solve:
When multiplying expressions with the same variable, combine terms by adding the exponents, while leaving the variable unchanged. For this problem, we do that by adding 9+2, to get a new exponent of 11:
Example Question #57 : Exponents
Solve:
When multiplying expressions with the same variable, combine terms by adding the exponents, while leaving the variable unchanged. For this problem, we do that by adding (1/5)+(3/5), to get a new exponent of (4/5):
Example Question #58 : Exponents
Solve:
When multiplying expressions with the same variable, combine terms by adding the exponents, while leaving the variable unchanged. For this problem, we do that by adding 3+9, to get a new exponent of 12:
Example Question #59 : Exponents
Solve:

Example Question #61 : Exponents
Simplify:
When multiplying exponents, we just add the exponents while keeping the base the same.
Example Question #62 : Exponents
Simplify:
When multiplying exponents with different bases but the same exponent, you multiply the bases and keep the exponents the same.
Example Question #63 : Exponents
Define an operation on the set of real numbers as follows:
For all real ,
Evaluate
The value of is an undefined quantity.
Set and
