Question

Simplify 3^2 x 3^3.

Answer 1

It's 243 because all you have to do is 3x3 which is 9 then do 3x3x3 which is 27. once you've got those two terms you multiply the two terms together which will give you a total of 243

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is 3^5 (which is also = 243).

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the exponent or product rule for powers (2 and 3) that have the same base (3): in order to multiply similar bases that have their respective powers, add the exponents, which in this case are 2 and 3, viz:

3^2 x 3^3 = 3^(2+3) = 3^5

3^5 = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 = 243.
