Question

What is the following product? Assume b>/= 0

Answer 1

it's B

Explanation:

i got it right on edge

Answer 2

b

Explanation:

we have

`√(b)*√(b)`

Rewrite the expression

`√(b)*√(b)=(b^{(1)/(2)})*(b^{(1)/(2)})`

we know that

When multiplying two powers that have the same base, you can add the exponents

so

`(b^{(1)/(2)})*(b^{(1)/(2)})=b^{((1)/(2)+(1)/(2))}=b^(1)=b`
