What does it mean to multiply two powers having the same base and add the exponents?
This is one of the laws of exponents, which states that xa * xb = x(a+b) The base is x, and the two powers (or exponents) are a and b.
What property can you use to multiply the expressions with exponents?
The Addition Property of Exponents. To multiply powers with the same base, add the exponents. e.g. 34 x 37 = 311, x2x3 = x5, and (3x2yz3)(2x5y2z) = 6x7y3z4.
How are exponents and powers different?
They are not. Exponents, powers and indices are terms used for the same thing.
How do you raise a power to a power?
The rule is that you multiply the exponents. So if I have 2 squared and I want to raise it to the third power, you multiply the 2x3=6. When you multiply powers you add the exponents. When you raise exponents to a power you multiply. This works for rational exponents which can be used to represent roots as well.
What is the differencr between exponents and powers?
None. Different words for the same thing.
When do add exponents?
when you multiply powers with the same base.

What is a rule that works for multiplying powers of the same base in exponents?
To multiply powers with the same base, you add the exponents. For example, 10^2 x 10^3 = 10^5. Similarly, to divide powers with the same base, you subtract the exponents. For example, 10^3 / 10^5 = 10^(-2).

How do you multiply exponents when the bases are not the same?
u cant they have to be the same (:
When multiplying a number exponents that are squared do you add or multiply?
If the base numbers or variables are the same, you add the exponents.
What are the seven rules for exponents?
Rules for exponents to multiply powers, add the exponents to divide powers, subtract the exponents to find a power of a power, multiply the exponents to find a power of a quotient, apply the power top and bottom to find a power pf a product, apply the exponent to each factor in the product x0 = 1 anything to the power zero equals one x-a = 1/xa a negative exponent means "one over" the positive exponent
When you multiply polynomials what do you do with the exponents?
Add them up providing that the bases are the same.
What are three laws of exponents for multiplication?
I can think of two: - To multiply powers with the same base, add the exponents: (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c). - To find a power of a product, apply the exponent to each factor in the product: (ab)^c = (a^c)(b^c).
How do you change powers with negative exponents to powers with positive exponents?
by doing reciprocal
