Simplifying Expressions with Different Bases

The video tutorial explains how to simplify expressions with different bases by using exponent laws. It covers the multiplication and division laws of exponents, the power to power rule, and how to handle expressions with the same exponent but different bases. The tutorial provides examples and step-by-step explanations to help students understand these concepts.

What is the multiplication law of exponents when the bases are the same?

• Multiply the bases and subtract the exponents

• Keep the base and subtract the exponents

• Keep the base and add the exponents

• Multiply the bases and add the exponents
