Introduction to Properties of Exponents

In order to multiply powers with the same base, we add their exponents. 

• True 
• False

Simplify the expression: 
c⁴⋅c³=

• ^c12
• c⁴⁺³
• c⁷

Simplify the expression: 3x²⋅x²=

• 3x
• 3x²⁺²
• 3x⁴

According to exponent rules, when we raise a power to another exponent we _______ the exponents.

• add
• subtract
• multiply
• divide

(2⁸)²

• 2¹⁶
• 2¹⁰
• 2⁶
• 2⁴

Simplify 4^-2= 

• 1/16
• -16
• 1/4
• -42

When dividing powers with the same base, you _______________ the exponents.

• x⁴

• x¹²

• x³

• x⁸
