Question

P5 • p• p4 = p9

a) True
b) False

Answer 1

p5 • p• p4 = p9 ⇒false

`p^(5) *p*p^(4) = p^(5) *p^(1) *p^(4) = p^(5+1+4)=p^(10)`

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The statement p⁵ • p • p⁴ is b) false. When multiplying powers with the same base, you add their exponents. In this case, p⁵ • p • p⁴ would be equal to p10. Therefore, p⁵ • p • p⁴ is not equal to p⁹.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement p⁵ • p • p⁴ = p⁹. is false.

When multiplying powers with the same base, you add their exponents. In this case,
p⁵ • p • p⁴ would be equal to p⁵+1+4 = p10. Therefore, p⁵ • p • p⁴ is not equal to p⁹.

So, the correct answer is b) False.
