Transcribed Image Text:Given the following:
2
y = (x³)(x3
This can also be written as:
y = x
Expert Solution

Step 1
Law of exponents:
If the base is the same, then add the powers in case of multiplication of numbers
i.e., Suppose we have two variables Xa and Xb
The base is the same for both variables, i.e., X
The power is different, i.e., for first it is 'a' and for second it is 'b'
=> Xa Xb = Xa+b.
