Question

What is the property and how are the exponents combined?

Answer 1

Answer:

x^15

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3 * x^2  (x^3)^2 x^6

-------------------------------

x^2

First I will use the power of powers  x^a^b = x^(a*b)

x^3 * x^2  x^(3*2) x^6

-------------------------------

x^2

x^3 * x^2  x^(6) x^6

-------------------------------

x^2

Next we will use the multiplication rule x^a * x^b = x^(a+b)

x^(3 +2+6+6)

-------------------------------

x^2

x^(17)

-------------------------------

x^2

Next we will use quotient rule  x^a / x^b = x^(a-b)

x^(17 -2)

x^15
