Question

What is each expression written using each base only once? 8 ^ 8 x 8 ^ 4

Answer 1

Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

The given expression  $8^8 \times 8^4$ using base only once is $8^{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression $8^8 \times 8^4$

We have to write the given expression using each base only once.

Consider the given expression  $8^8 \times 8^4$

We know, property of exponents, $a^n\times a^m=a^{m+n}$

Using the above property we have,

$8^8 \times 8^4=8^{8+4}$

Thus, simplify , we get,

$8^8 \times 8^4=8^{12}$

Thus, option (d) is correct.

The given expression  $8^8 \times 8^4$  using base only once is $8^{12}$

Answer 2

D! When base numbers are being multiplied, you add the exponents. So 8 + 4 would be 12.
