Multiplying Exponents with DIFFERENT bases and the SAME exponent: aⁿ * bⁿ

• Keep the base the same and subtract the exponents.

• Keep the exponent the same and multiply the base.

• Take the reciprocal and make the exponent positive.

• Keep the base the same and add the exponents.

• Keep the base the same and multiply the exponents.

Billy was asked to solve 3⁵∙3⁴. He got 9²⁰. What error did he make?

• When he multiplies exponents, he is supposed to add the base and the exponent
• When he multiplies exponents, he is supposed to multiply the base and keep the exponents
• When he multiplies exponents, he is supposed to keep the base and add the exponents if the base is the same
• None of the above

Simplify the exponential expression.

• 2x⁶y¹²
• 2x⁵y⁷
• 8x⁶y¹²
• 8x⁵y⁷
