Question

Express the following in exponential notation: (-13) X (-13). 35 times

Answer 1

Answer:

$(-13) * (-13) = (-13)^{2}$

$35 * 35 = 35^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$(-13) * (-13)$

Required

Express as an exponential notation

$(-13) * (-13)$

Apply the following law of indices

$x^a * x^b = x^{a+b}$

This gives:

$(-13) * (-13) = (-13)^{1+1}$

$(-13) * (-13) = (-13)^{2}$

The second complete is incomplete; However, I'll assume it is: 35 times 35

$35 * 35$

Using the same law applied in (1) above:

$35 * 35 = 35^{1+1}$

$35 * 35 = 35^{2}$
