Answer:
Exponent laws:
1. Product law
In product law if bases are same then we add their respective powers.But if bases are different we can't add their powers.
x=base, a,b,c=exponent
If x=2 and a=3, b=5 , and c=10, then
2.Product raised to a power
1. ![[x^{a}]^{c}=x^{ac}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Bx%5E%7Ba%7D%5D%5E%7Bc%7D%3Dx%5E%7Bac%7D)
2. ![[x^{a}\times x^{b}]^{c}=[x^{a+b}]^{c}=x^{ac+bc}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Bx%5E%7Ba%7D%5Ctimes%20x%5E%7Bb%7D%5D%5E%7Bc%7D%3D%5Bx%5E%7Ba%2Bb%7D%5D%5E%7Bc%7D%3Dx%5E%7Bac%2Bbc%7D)
If product is raised to a certain power , keeping the base same , we just multiply the powers.for example
![[2^{3}]^{4}=2^{3\times4}=2^{12}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B2%5E%7B3%7D%5D%5E%7B4%7D%3D2%5E%7B3%5Ctimes4%7D%3D2%5E%7B12%7D)
and
![[2^{3}\times3^{2}]^{2}=[2^{3}]^2 \times[3^{2}]^{2}=2^{6}\times3^{4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B2%5E%7B3%7D%5Ctimes3%5E%7B2%7D%5D%5E%7B2%7D%3D%5B2%5E%7B3%7D%5D%5E2%20%5Ctimes%5B3%5E%7B2%7D%5D%5E%7B2%7D%3D2%5E%7B6%7D%5Ctimes3%5E%7B4%7D)
![[2^{3}\times2^{2}]^{2}=[2^{3+2}]^{2}=[2^{5}]^{2}=2^{10}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B2%5E%7B3%7D%5Ctimes2%5E%7B2%7D%5D%5E%7B2%7D%3D%5B2%5E%7B3%2B2%7D%5D%5E%7B2%7D%3D%5B2%5E%7B5%7D%5D%5E%7B2%7D%3D2%5E%7B10%7D)
Answer:
The answer to your question is: first piece = 4 in, second piece = 8 in, third piece = 12 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
total length = 24 inches
first piece = x in
second piece = 2x
third piece = 3x
Equation
x + 2x + 3x = 24
6x = 24
x = 24/6
x = 4 length of the first piece
second piece = 2(4) = 8 inches
third piece = 3(4) = 12 inches
I think that's what your looking for
