Answer:

  ... you <u>add</u> the exponents

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponent is a way of showing repeated multiplication. For example, ...

  x^2 means x·x

and

  x^3 means x·x·x

If we multiply these two expressions together, we get ...

  (x^2)·(x^3) = (x·x)·(x·x·x) =  x·x·x·x·x

This is a product in which x appears as a factor 5 times, so we can write it using an exponent as ...

  x·x·x·x·x = x^5

___

That is, when we multiply the expressions, we add the numbers of times the factor appears in the product:

  2 + 3 = 5

  x^2 · x^3 = x^(2+3) = x^5

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

40+88+15=128+15=143

There are three rectangles that compose this shape. The first one has side lengths of 5 & 8 (l times w=a 5 times 8=40, area of the rectangle is 40). The second one has side lengths of 8&11 (8 times 11=88, area is 88). Final rectangles has side lengths of 16-(8+5) and 5 (16-13=3, 3 times 5=15, Area=15). All three of those rectangles added up is 143 as an area of the figure.
