The exponent cannot be added to the product because it stated in the law of exponents. An exponent is simply the shorthand in multiplying your base number. Exponent will give how many times you will multiply the base numbers. It is not possible that you add both exponents in the given situation because they have different value together.
=> 12^3 x 11^3
If we solve this equation following the rule of exponent will get the correct answer:
=> (12 x 12 x 12) x (11 x 11 x 11)
=> 1728 X 1331
=> the answer is 2 299 968
But if we add the exponent, the answer would be wrong
=> 12^3 x 11^3
=> 132^6
=> 5289852801024 which is wrong.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter of each curved path is 200 feet. Since the two curved semi circular paths are equal, they would form a circle. It means that the distance around the two semi circular paths would be the circumference of the circle. Formula for determining the circumference of the circle is π × diameter. It becomes

200 × 3.14 = 628 feet

Total distance around the track would be

300 + 300 + 628 = 1228 feet

5280 feet = 1 mile

1228 feet = 1228/5280 = 0.23 mile

If he runs around the track exactly 15 times, it means that the number of miles covered is

0.23 × 15 = 3.45 miles

Since he will collect $4.50 for every mile he runs, the amount of money that he collected is

4.5 × 3.45 = $15.5
