Question

Write the following expression using a single exponent.
5^0 x 5^5

Answer 1

5^5
Way 1: because if 2^a*2^b then it equals 2^(a+b) making sure that the bases are equal meaning 2
Another way: 5^0 equals one because anything raised to the power zero is one so it literally just says 5^5*1 which equals 5^5
