Normally, we could add exponents.
however, that only is possible when the bases are the same
recall what exponents mean

12³=12*12*12


so we cannot add exponents for 12³*11³ because that means 12*12*12*11*11*11
it would not equal 12⁶ or 11⁶



or you  could refer to the rule
(x^a)(x^b)=x^{a+b}
notice when x=x then we can add the bases


fun fact below
we can reverse a previous exponential rule like this
since (ab)^c=(a^c)(b^c) then (a^c)(b^c)=(ab)^c
therefor
12^3*11^3=(12*11)^3



we can't add the exponents because the bases are not the same

–5(3 – q) + 4 = 5q – 11

-15 +5q + 4 = 5q -11

-11 + 5q = 5q - 11

Factor the polynomial.<br><br> X2-13x+30
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

<h2>\ \boxed{(x - 3)(x - 10)}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

{x}^{2}  - 13x  + 30

Write -13x as a difference

{x}^{2}  - 3x - 10x + 30

Factor out x from the expression

x(x - 3) - 10x + 30

Factor out -10 from the expression

x(x - 3) - 10(x - 3)

Factor out x-3 from the expression

(x - 3)(x - 10)

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!
