Properties of Exponents and Powers

The video tutorial explains how to simplify an exponential expression using properties of exponents. It begins by applying the power of a power property, which involves multiplying exponents. The tutorial then demonstrates simplifying both the denominator and numerator of the expression. By adding exponents in the numerator and applying division rules, the expression simplifies to 5^0, which equals one.

What is the power of a power property of exponents?

• a^(m*n) = a^(m+n)

• a^m / a^n = a^(m-n)

• a^(m^n) = a^(m*n)

• a^m * a^n = a^(m+n)
