Question

Using exponents write a multiplication expression that is different from, but equivalent to 3 to the power of 4 multiply by 3 to the power of 2. Then write another multiplication expression equivalent to the first expression without using exponents.

Answer 1

Answer:

The equivalent expression would be 3^6, and without exponents this would be equal to 729.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the equivalent expression, you have to know that terms with the same base that are multiplied simply add together exponents.

3^4 * 3^2 = 3^6

Then we can find that by expanding the terms and completing the multiplication.

3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 = 729
