Question

Express each question as a single power. Then state the Exponent law used.

A) 2^4 x 2^7
Exponent Law(s)
B) (-3)^9 divided (-3)^5
Exponent Law(s)
C) (5^2)^-3 x 5^0
Exponent Law(s)

Please answer this math problem asap. Thanks!

Answer 1

A) 2^4 x 2^7 = 2^(4 + 7) = 2^11

Exponent Law(s): Product Law

B) (-3)^9 divided (-3)^5 = (-3)^(9 - 5) = (-3)^4

Exponent Law(s): Quotient Law

C) (5^2)^-3 x 5^0 = 5^(-6) × 1 = 5^(-6)

Exponent Law(s): Power of a power rule; zero exponent rule
