The video tutorial explains how to simplify expressions with exponents using the power rule. It begins with an introduction to the concept and then explains the power rule, which states that raising a power to another power involves multiplying the exponents. The tutorial provides a detailed example using x squared raised to the third power, demonstrating how to multiply the exponents and simplify the expression. Finally, the power rule is applied to a more complex expression, showing how to simplify it step by step.

What is the initial expression that needs to be simplified using the power rule?

• x to the third power raised to the fourth power times x squared raised to the fifth power

• x squared raised to the third power times x to the fourth power

• x to the fifth power raised to the second power times x to the third power

• x to the fourth power raised to the third power times x squared
