Exponent Rules for Multiplying

The product rule says that when you are multiplying two exponents with the same base, you keep the base and ________ the exponents

• Add

• Subtract

• Multiply

• Divide

According to exponent rules, when we multiply two powers with the same base we _______ the exponents.

Example: c⁶ ⋅ c⁴

• add

• subtract

• multiply

• divide

x³⋅x² =

• x⁵

• x⁶

• x⁹

• x¹

(8⁵)³

• 8⁸

• 8¹⁵

• 8²

• 1/8²

According to exponent rules, when we multiply the expressions we _______ the exponents.

• add

• subtract

• multiply

• divide

• A
• B
• C
• D

• A
• B
• C
• D

How would you simply (2x⁵)(6x⁴) ?

• MULTIPLY both the coefficients and MULTIPLY the exponents

• DIVIDE the coefficients then SUBTRACT the exponents

• Combine like terms

• MULTIPLY the coefficients then ADD exponents

Consider the monomial expression shown in the question, its simplified form is

• A

• B

• C

• D
