Question

Place the indicated product in the proper location on the grid. x 2 • x 5

Answer 1

For this case we have the following expression:

`x ^ 2 * x ^ 5`

By properties of the power we have:

`a ^ b * a ^ c = a ^ {(b + c)}`

Where "a" is the base and "b" and "c" are the exponents

That is, the same base is placed and the exponents are added. Applying this property to the given expression we have:

`x ^ 2 * x ^ 5 = x ^ {(2 + 5)} = x ^ 7`

Then, the product of
`x ^ 2 * x ^ 5` is:
`x ^ 7`

Answer:

`x ^ 2 * x ^ 5 = x ^ 7`
