Question

The exponent on b when b^3 is multiplied by b^3 is

Answer 1

6

Explanation:

b³ · b³ = ( b³ )² = b⁽³⁾⁽²⁾ = b⁶

hence the exponent is 6

Answer 2

6.

Explanation:

When b^3 is multiplied by b^3, the bases are the same (b). That means that the exponents are added to each other. 3 + 3 = 6, so b^3 * b^3 = b^6.
